dc.description.abstract | Dyslexia has become a frequent condition that teachers face in classroom settings. However, in public schools, it seems to be more difficult because of the lack of teacher training. As a consequence, some teachers struggle every day in mainstream schools with dyslexic students without the appropriate knowledge to teach them. In this sense, this study describes how teachers deal with this disability when teaching reading in English. The main objective of this qualitative study is to explore how an English teacher accommodates his/her teaching of reading in English to a child with dyslexia, and how multisensory activities could facilitate that process. This case study sample is a sixteen-year-old student diagnosed with dyslexia and a secondary English teacher. Data was collected through observations, interviews, stimulated recalls, and multisensory activities over one scholarly term, this data was analyzed by carrying out a thematic analysis. Findings showed that the use of multisensory activities not only helped dyslexic students overcome difficulties in reading but also increased their motivation towards English classes. Also, the teacher’s role is pivotal when preparing and accommodating his classes taking into account the student’s needs by using multisensory activities. This study supports teachers providing them with the opportunity to explore the use of a multisensory approach for teaching reading in English to dyslexic students. | eng |
dc.description.abstract | La dislexia se ha convertido en una condición frecuente que enfrentan los profesores en el aula. Sin embargo, en las escuelas públicas parece ser más difícil debido a la falta de formación de los docentes. Como consecuencia, algunos profesores luchan todos los días en las escuelas regulares con estudiantes disléxicos sin los conocimientos adecuados para enseñarles. En este sentido, este estudio describe cómo los docentes abordan esta discapacidad cuando enseñan una segunda lengua. El principal objetivo de este estudio cualitativo es explorar cómo un profesor de inglés adapta su enseñanza de lectura en inglés a un niño con dislexia, y cómo las actividades multisensoriales podrían facilitar ese proceso. La muestra de este estudio de caso es un estudiante de dieciséis años diagnosticado con dislexia y un profesor de inglés de secundaria. Los datos fueron recolectados a través de observaciones, entrevistas, recuerdos estimulados y actividades multisensoriales durante un período de un periodo académico, estos datos fueron analizados realizando un análisis temático. Los hallazgos mostraron que el uso de actividades multisensoriales no sólo ayudó a superar las dificultades de lectura en un estudiante disléxico, sino que también aumentó la motivación hacia las clases de inglés. Además, el papel del docente es fundamental a la hora de preparar y adaptar sus clases teniendo en cuenta las necesidades del alumno mediante el uso de actividades multisensoriales. Este estudio apoya a los docentes brindándoles la oportunidad de explorar el uso de un enfoque multisensorial para enseñar lectura en inglés a estudiantes disléxicos. | spa |
