In order to do this, a review of the literature surrounding the main concepts of disabilities has been carried out, in which the theory of learning disabilities is explained and then linked to dyslexia. Then, a discussion of the different teaching methods that are used in a dyslexic classroom is presented. A research pilot case study, which is presented in the form of a series of sessions, was undertaken. The pilot case study was based on the monitoring of elementary school children. Five students in the fourth grade participated in this study, which was conducted in the Learning Support Department of a school in the Metn, Lebanon. It was found after that seven sessions of instruction, the students (n=2) who were instructed following a multisensory approach, performed highesr in class than did the students (n=3) whose instruction did not include any multisensory work. Keeping in mind all the variables involved in this pilot case study, such as the relatively small number of students observed, and the time constraints, it was concluded that following a different methodology based on a multisensory approach to teaching dyslexic students proved to be more effective. | |
