✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Understanding Dyslexia in Child Development
Dyslexia is a specific learning disability of neurological origin that primarily affects accurate and fluent word recognition, spelling, and decoding abilities.
- It is not a result of visual impairment or low intellectual capacity (IQ remains average or above average).
- It is fundamentally linked to difficulties in phonological processing.
- Effective pedagogy for such learners involves multi-sensory teaching approaches to support literacy development.
