Feedback and the Speed of Answer of Pupils with Dyslexia in Digital Activities

Children with dyslexia are usually diagnosed at school by the difficulty they encounter in their effort to learn first reading and writing. This happens because the difficulty of pupils with dyslexia has great relation with a disruption in a specific area called Phonological Awareness. That problem affects their ability both in reading and writing and accompanies them to some extent during their entire life. That is why they try to find different ways of manipulating written language. The contribution of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to the education of pupils with dyslexia is reported by many researchers. In this report digital activities based on constructivism are used in order to give them an alternative way to find the correct answer faster. Results showed that activities with constructivist type of feedback help students find the correct answer faster.
