DEALING WITH DYSCALCULIA OVER TIME Antonia Plerou,
Ionian University Although
several surveys related to dyscalculia have proceeded so far,
research seems to fail till now to develop a clear concept map
referring to the features of dyscalculia classified according to
age. Dyscalculia can be recognized by some specific features that
are noticed through all stages of the individual’s development. In
this paper a classification of features is proposed, according to
individuals’ age as well as several screening methods, in order to
ensure efficiency of the screening procedure. Dyscalculia’s features
evaluation during different stages of age is crucial since diagnosis
is relevant to the age considering that math’s learning difficulties
arising in early ages are likely to be remitted since this status is
possible to be temporary. An innovative aspect in this work is the
citation and analysis of algorithmic thinking difficulties
encountering in older ages under the range of learning difficulties
in mathematics and dyscalculia. |
