Facebook:Facebook: Dyslexia is a way that many see past the curtain of education and see a huge gap. The lack of specialists and interventionists, diagnosing issues with our learners and children is difficult. It speaks to how we invest in education, not how our children are raised.
Tweet:Tweet: Do you agree that dyslexia gives an accurate view of educational systems?
Quote:Quote: I am tired of hearing them say: “I have a short-term memory problem.” None of this is true. Dyslexia exists for three reasons, simplified into this analogy; dyslexics are the little “Apple Macs” in a “PC” education system.
Have you ever given thought to what Dyslexia means about our educational system? Often we look at the student or the child and not the education system itself when it comes to the way Dyslexia works. However, Dyslexia is showing that there are problems with education or with how the children are taught, and not the child.

Key Points:

- While the Redford family film Decoding Dyslexia is meant to be uplifting, not patronizing, it sends a similar message that people with dyslexia should perservere to find something they excel at.
- People with dyslexia are sent the message that they and their learning difference are the problem, but the real problem is the lack of education and support to help people with dyslexia fulfill their potential.
