Dyslexia Software Makes Testing Easier

June 11th, 2009

It is expected that there are well over a million undiagnosed adult dyslexics in the U.S. About 10% of the general population has some type of dyslexia. While school-age children are now routinely screened for dyslexia, this is a relatively recent development, only coming in the last 15 years or so.

Practically all of us who finished elementary school more than 15 years ago were never tested Some 90+ per cent of adults with dyslexia have no idea that it is dyslexia that has been causing them problems. Dyslexics see thing differently from non-dyslexics. This means that dyslexics often have difficulty in reading, spelling and pronouncing new words.

With the proper training, they can do almost everything that non-dyslexics can. The problem is in finding them, getting them tested so they can be helped.

The speed and flexibility of the Internet has now been tapped by new dyslexia software. It lets you take a full dyslexia test online.} Any adult can take the test in the privacy of their home or office, anyplace that they can connect to the Internet. You get a full dyslexia assessment immediately after the test. It comes in a form that you can print out and read, along with the accompanying explanations.

For children with learning disabilities there is dyslexia software for special games that enable teachers or parents to easily identify those children with dyslexia problems. The games come in different types and versions for different age groups.

Parents, teachers, any adult supervising the games can observe children playing and quickly identify which have probable dyslexia problems.

These new software tools promise to be a great help in making it easier to test and identify those with problems of dyslexia.
