Educational Assessment of L.D

 

Visit the following website:

This site provides learning disability characteristics for reading, writing, math, and attention disorders. Each area has a Basic, Difficulties, and Responses page that you should read. On the Basic page, there are several simulations.  As you read through, a message is displayed that asks you Try it yourself to experience a specific simulation. You will need to try at least one simulation from each area (reading, math, writing, and attention) for a total of 4.  After each simulation, briefly describe what you were to do in the simulation and summarize how you felt performing the simulation in 150-250 words each. Each simulation is worth 5 points for a total of 20 points.  (Some students have experienced problems accessing the Attention simulation.  If this is a problem for you, do two of one of the other (2 math, or 2 reading, or 2 writing to add up to the four simulations.) The assignment should be uploaded by Sunday, September 5th, at 11:59 pm.
