Possibilidades didáticas do aplicativo domlexia no processo de ensino e aprendizagem de crianças com dislexia

Abstract

Dyslexia is a specific learning disability of neurological origin characterized by difficulties related to reading and writing. Is a subject that is being discussed in the educational scope today. Thus, the general objective of this study was to discuss the process of literacy for dyslexics, reflecting whether and how the Domlexia application can help. To achieve this goal, a qualitative research was carried out, starting with a bibliographic research, in which a theoretical apparatus was sought about the process of literacy of dyslexics and, then, an exploratory research was carried out to analyze the application, in order to understand the pedagogical role and the help it can offer in the process of acquiring reading and writing for dyslexic children. The analyzes showed that the application is adequate to what they propose: its use in the classroom has the potential to provide an improvement in the cognitive development of dyslexic children. They also pointed out that it is necessary for the teacher to seek to know and deepen the pedagogical possibilities of its use, since meaningful learning depends on a combination of factors, including among them the pedagogical proposals, the students' needs and the adequacy of general methodologies to the particularities of each one.
