A child is noticed to have the following difficulty while learning the language - Correct Answer Dyslexia

Learning disabilities are diagnosed particularly when children start going to school and are engaged in academic activities with other children in the school. It may be caused due to premature birth, low birth weight, and malnutrition.

Key Points

Dyslexia: 

  • Dyslexia is a condition in which a child/student faces persistent challenges in learning the names and sounds of letters because of frequently omitting substitutes or reversing the letters and words while reading.
  • When one faces difficulty in reading, s/he can not spell the words properly and is unable to write them accurately as well, so takes longer time to complete written work. Students having dyslexia get confused between similar words, sounds of alphabets, and the same shapes of letters.
  • Also, they make mistakes when reading aloud and face visual disturbances when reading sentences or words. For example, the students can get confused between "69" and "96", and also they may read "saw" as "was".

Hence, it could be concluded that the child may be showing the symptoms of dyslexia.

Additional Information 

  • Dysgraphia is a deficiency that affects the ability to write coherently.
  • Dyscalculia is a type of mathematics-related learning disability that hinders learners' basic understanding of numbers.
  • Learning Phobia is the condition, the individual realizes that his fear is irrational and unrealistic, but is unable to dispel it. The individual takes elaborate steps to avoid the learning situation that arouses fear.

In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/ passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/ passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. 1. Straight As may be the wrong goal, suggests a new study that has determined learning is optimized when we fail 15% of the time. P. This is a concept that society has intuited for a long time, across a variety of domains — for instance, this just-outside-one’s-grasp learning is observable in video games, in which the player is encouraged or forced to a higher level of difficulty once a performance criterion has been achieved.  Q. In both cases, machines and animals learned the fastest when difficulty was such that the subject would be right 85% of the time and be wrong 15%. But researchers say their finding is likely applicable to humans.  R. Interestingly, it’s not a new concept — the “zone of proximal development,” a theory developed in the 1930s by psychologist Lev Vygotsky described the sweet spot of learning: when a student is faced with a challenge just beyond their ability to solve it alone. It’s a ‘Goldilock’s zone'. S. A ratio, developed by researchers at various universities was tested on computers via machine learning and applied to previous research looking into how animals learn.  6. If one is taking classes that are too easy and acing them all the time, then one probably isn’t getting as much out of a class as someone who’s struggling but managing to keep up.
