Touch typing
Learning to touch type brings many benefits to Dyslexic individuals.
It reduces the need for handwriting, (often a disliked or problematic
area), and typing is easily corrected without original mistakes
being apparent. It vastly improves efficiency of computer usage,
and Spell Checkers are an invaluable help! In addition, touch
typing actually facilitates learning to spell, by making spelling
more than a simple visual skill: spelling also becomes patterns
on the keyboard – patterns and spatial skills are often
areas of strength for Dyslexics. |
