Dyslexia is a common learning disorder that affects at least 5% of school children in Europe. The range and severity of the problem varies widely, but the main areas of difficulty are reading, writing, spelling, numeracy, personal organisation and time-keeping. The degree to which individuals may be affected ranges from mild spelling difficulties to severe organisational problems or complete illiteracy. The AGENT-DYSL project will develop an Intelligent Assistive Reading System which can help school-aged readers who have dyslexia to improve their reading. Children using the reading system will receive personalized attention by the system, with customized presentation of reading material, based on individual profiles built up through “observation” of each child reading the text on the system’s viewing area and by recognizing their reading errors. These individual profiles are used in deciding how to optimise the text presentation for each child and situation. |
