https://doi.org/10.31686/ijier.vol2.iss8.222Abstract
The main objective of this paper is to discuss the preliminary conceptual courseware model to support dyslexic children in reading. The construction of the model has incorporated suitable teaching and learning methods for dyslexic children. To study the effect of the model, a prototype courseware was developed and tested by dyslexic children. The model is called “E-Z-dyslexia”.
