Learning Disabilities (Dyslexia etc.)
Asked 1 month ago · Viewed 3,943 times
Consider the following pairs regarding disorders and their characteristics coming under 'Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD)' in the context of Inclusive Education and Child-Centred Education:
- 1. Dyslexia - It is a reading disability in which the child experiences difficulty in reading letters, words, or sentences backwards, getting confused between 'b' and 'd', and decoding sounds together.
- 2. Dysgraphia - It is primarily a writing disability in which the child's handwriting is extremely poor, uneven, or disorganized, and they face heavy trouble with spelling and expressing thoughts in written form.
- 3. Dyscalculia - It is a learning disability that affects the comprehensive understanding of oral and written language, due to which the child can neither listen to the teacher's talk nor follow oral instructions.
- 4. Dyspraxia - It is a disorder related to motor skills coordination, in which there is severe coordination difficulty in performing fine motor actions (like tying shoelaces, holding a pencil, or buttoning).
Which of the above pairs are correctly matched?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Pair 1 is correct: 'Dyslexia' is a reading disability in which children have trouble with the alphabet, word recognition, and decoding. Pair 2 is correct: 'Dysgraphia' is a writing disability affecting spelling and handwriting. Pair 3 is incorrect: 'Dyscalculia' is a disorder related to mathematical calculations and difficulty in understanding numbers (not comprehensive language comprehension, which is called aphasia or dysphasia). Pair 4 is correct: 'Dyspraxia' is a motor coordination disorder affecting physical movements and fine motor skills.
