However, many teachers resist using these tools because they can be time-consuming to administer, grade, record, and analyze. Some teachers avoid diagnostic assessments because these teachers exclusively focus on grade-level standards-based instruction or believe that remediation is (or was) the job of some other teacher. To be honest, some teachers resist diagnostic assessments because the data might induce them to differentiate instruction—a daunting task for any teacher.

I do know from experience that some people do quite well with a Dynavox – I think that’s the company name too – so I would recommend googling that. I would also recommend calling them and seeing about having a meeting to try different machines, if that’s what they decide, b/c I think there are several different kinds. I also know from experience that many people don’t like these superficial ways to communicate and prefer paper and pencil. Something to try if they haven’t already. Here’s a website about PPA http://www.ftd-picks.org/frontotemporal-dementias/disorders/progressive-aphasia to answer other general questions. Also UCSF has a site – Dr. Bruce Miller directs the center that specializes in FTDs. Hope this helps!

]]> Comment on Speech perception abilities of adults with dyslexia: is there any evidence for a true deficit? by John Hayes http://callierlibrary.wordpress.com/2009/08/03/speech-perception-abilities-of-adults-with-dyslexia-is-there-any-evidence-for-a-true-deficit/#comment-7225 John Hayes Wed, 05 Aug 2009 04:19:18 +0000 http://callierlibrary.wordpress.com/?p=12524#comment-7225 It is impossible to evaluate the study given the lack of description of the tests used. The conclusions are quite different than what has been observed by much of current dyslexia research . While the results are possible, to arrive at conclusions so different, it would be better to know who diagnosed these adults as dyslexic, were they mildly or severely dyslexic and what their current reading skills are compared to the general population. Diagnosed adult dyslexics have often have had some type of intervention. Saying adult dyslexics were used in the study leaves me with questions about how these adult dyslexics were identified and if they had prior interventions that were successful. Diagnosed dyslexics often have high IQ's greater than dyslexics in general. It seems the only time when lower IQ dyslexics are diagnosed is when someone evaluates a narrow IQ range for dyslexics and then the result is that whatever the IQ range the same % of dyslexics are diagnosed as in the general population. Were both groups matched for IQ or anything else. Would the same tests be definitive enough to be used to evaluate if a child was dyslexic or not? My niche is visual dyslexia and visual dyslexics do not exhibit a speech perception deficit because their problems are visual not phonological. Visual dyslexics that can describe their visual problems that make reading difficult can read normally with See Right Dyslexia Glasses available at www.dyslexiaglasses.com . As I said at the beginning of my comment, not enough information to evaluate the quality of the conclusions. It is impossible to evaluate the study given the lack of description of the tests used.
