When a student by the name of Sarah who was in the second grade received D’s and F’s on her report card all year long, her parents sought answers. They sought medical and psycho-educational evaluations. Still, they had no answers. The way that the tests are designed to test for a learning disability must involve “discrepancy” in the testing even if there appears to be a problem in the learning style when putting in effort while still receiving failing grades.
The neuropsychological model examines an individual’s strengths and weaknesses, both physically and psychologically.
Finally, some answers were revealed by using the “strengths and weaknesses” model. With this type of testing, she was able to get answers for her specific learning disability. One thing that differs when using the “strengths and weaknesses” model which is also known as the neuropsychological model is that it allows for tailor-made remedies that are custom to the child. This can be related to dyslexia because it is neurological in origin as seen in the case with David.
