NEA - Neuropsychology of Reading and Writing Disorders (dyslexia and dysgraphia)
A comprehensive review of the neuropsychological bases of reading and writing disorders. We will review the specific brain regions that are involved in reading, discuss the major subtypes of reading disorders, and discuss the evidence-based interventions related to those subtypes. The afternoon presentation should be helpful in assisting educators to identify specific breakdowns in the writing process. The ability to generate and produce written language requires multiple linguistic skills involving both phonological and orthographical functioning (the elementary components of language), executive functioning skills to organize inner ideas and thoughts, and working memory skills to hold these thoughts in mind long enough for effective motor skills output. Whereas reading begins with visual stimuli in the outside environment and ends with the brain determining meaning from the stimuli, writing begins with an idea and intent to communicate within the brain, and concludes with a psychomotor act that leaves a tangible record.
