Dyslexia and taking notes

As a student with dyslexia at college or university, you may have trouble with note-taking. Draw a line down a sheet of paper, with one-third of the page on the left and two-thirds of the page on the right.
Write the main idea of each paragraph on the left side. List details on the right side of the page. The two-column note-taking method visually separates information into main ideas and details. More Dyslexia and concentration The main barriers to concentrating are boredom, anxiety and day-dreaming. To improve our concentration skills we need to counteract these barriers.

Dyslexia
What is Dyslexia?
Dyslexia is a disorder that is characterized by a difficulty processing words. Reading problems are one symptom of dyslexia. "Dys" means bad or difficult and "lexia" means word. The problem was first described in 1896 by Dr. W. Pringle Morgan in England. He wrote of a "bright and intelligent boy quick at games and in no way inferior to others of his age. His great difficulty has been - and is now - his inability to learn to read." Dyslexia can occur in several members of a family. This suggests that there is a genetic component to the disorder. Dyslexia also varies in degree of severity, thus affecting some people much more than others.
Frustrating Phonemes
It is now known that the brains of dyslexics are "wired" differently than normal brains, and thus process language less efficiently. In particular, dyslexics have trouble with the units of language called phonemes. Phonemes are defined as the smallest meaningful segments of language. For example, the spoken word "cat" is made up of three phonemes: kuh, aah, tuh. There are 44 phonemes in the English language. For most people, the process of breaking words into phonemes occurs automatically, without conscious thought. Just as we break down phonemes without thinking about it, we also merge them in our speech automatically: "cat" is one syllable, but made up of three distinct sounds. Between the ages of 4 to 6, most children are aware that phonemes make up words.
Trouble with Phonemes
Because dyslexics cannot decode words, they have trouble accessing the information they have stored pertaining to that word. They often confuse like-sounding words, such as "volcano" and "tornado." When shown a picture of a volcano, for example, a dyslexic might call it a "tornado," yet when asked to define what it does will correctly answer that it can erupt and spew hot lava. In other words, the dyslexic knows what the object is, but he or she cannot access the correct word for it.

1. Introduction.
People with dyslexia can have enormous difficulties in making sense of reading, writing and spelling. Nowadays there is much that can be done. Dyslexia is a recognised condition and, if identified early, people can generally be helped to find ways to cope with their problems and acquire the skills we all need to reach our potential. This site aims to raise awareness about dyslexia. It discusses possible causes of the condition. It provides practical advice to enable people to recognise dyslexia and suggests ways to deal with problems before school, at school and later in life. It also includes a comprehensive resource section with details of the many organisations which offer help, as well as lists of further reading and websites.
A dyslexia friendly site.
