The Routledge International Handbook of Dyslexia in Education
showcases the various examples, expertise, and successful
initiatives attempted to include students with dyslexia around the
globe. It highlights progress and identifies gaps for growth
globally to stand united against dyslexia as a literacy problem and
a specific learning disability challenge. Taking a truly global
view, each chapter from world-leading experts highlights issues
related to the definition of dyslexia and how it is recognised
locally, its implications on relevant legislations and educational
policy and how teacher training programs on dyslexia are delivered
at both pre-service and in-service levels. Contributors to this
handbook also discuss and compare the services and tools available
to identify individuals with dyslexia, such as nationally
standardized tests and tools for dyslexia assessment. Students,
researchers, teachers and other educational professionals who
require highly relevant, research-informed guidance on dyslexia and
its awareness, identification, training, outreach, and intervention
around the globe will find this handbook an essential and timely
resource. Readers will also be able to identify shared experiences
and good lessons from around the world, as well as learn about
better strategies to guide their journey in their own local
community.
