ABSTRACT

The study aims to give an essay type theoretical background about the perspectives and knowledge of the Learning disability. The study initialized by addressing the conception and discovery of Learning disability. It brings to our knowledge that the Learning disability is still misinterpreted, unapproved, misdiagnosed and mishandled. A sadder part is parents and teachers still struggle to notice the presence of disorders of learning disability in the child therefore they need a simplistic and convenient benchmark to know its existence. They need to have certain instructions to deal with academic difficulties and behavioural issues which arise out of the different disorders of Learning Disability: Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia and Dyspraxia. In this context to understand and not to misjudge or label the child, there is a need to educate oneself through various organizations and meet ups with professionals of the field. Thus the current study has suggested some useful guidelines to identify the characteristics, common errors, direction for management and remediation of the Learning disability. On the whole people seem to be oblivious to such an Invisible disability. Also the study has analyzed the importance of teamwork around the Child with Learning disability which transforms into an optimistic circle thereby passing guidance and solutions to each other.
