Description
Key Perspectives on Dyslexia provides a comprehensive guide for specialist educators working with students who have dyslexia. Written by two established scholars, this book sets out the skills and knowledge required to support these students effectively. The British Dyslexia Association Professional Criteria serves as an anchor throughout the book's content, ensuring that guidance is grounded in internationally recognised professional standards. The authors draw on their years of experience in the field to explore key issues in dyslexia education and care, including reading instruction, identification, and assessment. This publication offers detailed case studies, concise examinations of reading instruction, and practical guidance on referral and assessment procedures. It also considers the relationship between intelligence and assessment for dyslexia, providing a nuanced understanding of this complex issue.
