This video has nothing to do with your attempt at politically Correct definitions! It has everything to do with helping parents help their children. We are all at a disadvantage in certain environments as we are never all equal. Yet, in the common prevalent environment we all share those who fail to achieve are "named" and singled out not for abuse but to find a source of compassionate help.
I am sorry if what I am about to say is a little harsh nevertheless; I have to say it. Parent, teachers and so called professionals PLEASE! stop using words like: disorder, suffer, plagued, syndrome or symptoms just to name a few. A dyslexic person (that will be the last time I will use the word dyslexic. I will use Global Thinkers/3D Thinkers) is not sick, they are not handicapped and they most certainly are not plagued with anything.
This type of talk lowers a childs self-esteem and you end up raising a drug addict or worse, inmate number a18677-8345 Your childs only issue is that they are a (PGT) predominantly Global Thinker (about 10% of the world) living in a (PLT) predominantly Linear Thinking world (the rest of the world).
Linear thinkers prefer a very structured approach to learning. If a learning process involves progression (Step A, Step B, Step C, etc.) linear thinkers will feel more comfortable starting Step B only after Step A has been completed. Mathematics and accounting are considered linear subjects since they involve a process-oriented presentation of information.
Global thinkers (or "strategic thinkers") are more comfortable with new information if they can put it into context with the big picture. They also tend to be impatient with linear subjects and linear-oriented instruction - they prefer access to all the information (early on) so they can relate it to their overall goals.
The keyword here is, predominantly i.e. no one is 100% either way. When a (PGT) is asked to think and learn in a (PLT) environment they become disoriented. You can also reverse that as a, (PLT) will find it very hard to learn in a (PGT) environment.
EVERY ONE OF US HAS ISSUES TO DEAL WITH Oh, and one more thing, if you think there is some sort of cure or someone tells you there is, hide your wallet because it is not cancer.
rob. thanks. i understand you 100 percent . i am dyslexic and daltonic . and i know that there is no cure . i also know the compensatory gifts that come as part of the disorder. (of which there are many) it is so refreshing to meet someone who understands me . thank you again
@chuftain There's a completely free way of solving reading problems provided the child is aged 9 or over. Take a look at literacydeficits.blogspot.com This is not an advert - it really works and doesnt cost a penny.
