You may find our web page useful at www.dyslexic.com/ri, which briefly compares and contrasts those two types of reading impairment. And Dyslexia Action & RNIB had a conference on Dyslexia and VI on Saturday which you may be able to find some useful results from. Unfortunately I wasn't able to go. http://www.dyslexiaaction.org.uk/uploads/Symposium08.pdf Regards Ian Litterick Executive Chairman www.iansyst.co.uk www.dyslexic.com www.re-adjust.co.uk 07860 926159 direct 01223 436680 -----Original Message----- From: Discussion list for disabled students and their support staff. [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Emma Rowlett Sent: 24 November 2008 14:54 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [DIS-FORUM] Dyslexia resources *Apologies for cross-posting* Dear all, As part of my PhD I'm looking into dyslexia as a form of print impairment and how it does or doesn't differ in its effects to visual impairments. I've come across a paper by Barbara Riddick entitled "Dyslexia and inclusion: time for a social model of disability perspective?" and this is very useful. However, I wondered if any of you know of any other resources that might be helpful. In particular I'm interested in the different interpretation of the "D" in SpLD - difference, difficulty, disability, etc. Thanks, Emma -- Emma Jane Rowlett (née Wright) School of Sociology and Social Policy University of Nottingham [log in to unmask] www.accessingmaterials.org.uk Sign up for support and information in our occasional newsletter on "Technology and Dyslexia" at http://www.dyslexic.com/newsletter.asp Saving space & paper - go to http://www.iansyst.co.uk/disclaimer.asp for company info and email terms. www.iansyst.co.uk, www.dyslexic.com, www.re-adjust.co.uk, www.itspc.co.uk 01223 420101
