Produktbeschreibung
Specific Learning Disabilities (SLD) are categorized as childhood disorders in which a child exhibits difficulty in certain basic skills despite having normal intelligence. The skills being affected consist of reading, writing, listening, speaking, reasoning, and arithmetic problem-solving. Technology plays a very crucial role in today's globalized world. To assist persons with SLD, technology in form of assistive technology is used. Assistive technology can be hardware, software, or a combination of both. Though several assistive technology tools are present, but they are not being used optimally due to certain barriers to using them.The research on SLD is in its infancy stage in India. There are no standardized guidelines for screening/diagnosis and management of SLD in India. Lack of knowledge regarding the disability among people makes them reluctant even to get themselves screened for SLD.The book presents the current scenario and management of SLD in India. It further presents the major barriers to the optimal utilization of Assistive technology and the need to eliminate them. Lastly, the framework and working of the assistive tool developed by the author are explained.
