A common problem in most systems of education is that of children with learning disabilities. Probably the most common learning disability is that from dyslexia. Dyslexia is a neurological condition in which the signals received from the eyes are not clearly interpreted by the brain. The result is that dyslexic people (dyslexics) see things differently.
Often the first indication of dyslexia shows up as problems with reading. To read one must see the letters of words correctly and then interpret these letters into words and the words into sounds and thoughts/ideas. Various types of dyslexia can complicate this process of perception and translation.
The word “dyslexia” itself, consists of “dys” -not working, as in “dysfunctional” and “lexia” - having to do with reading, words, documents. It is based on this often observed problem with reading.|The origin of the term “dyslexia” is in the idea of “problems with reading”. The word is made up of “dys” as in not functioning and “lexia” from pertaining to books, reading, word orders.
About 10% of the general population has some sort of dyslexia, in some degree. There are symptoms of dyslexia that many educators are trained to look for, such as difficulty with reading aloud. But there is really only one way to know for sure whether a person has dyslexia or not and to what degree. That is by taking a professionally prepared special dyslexia test.
