High time for tools to help with dyslexia and dyscalculia at school

Every class has at least one student with a learning disability such as dyslexia or dyscalculia. Unfortunately, some schools do not always allow these students to use aids such as laptops with reading software or calculators. That is why HOGENT developed ‘Dysparcours’, an empathy tool that helps teachers, care coordinators, and parents to better understand what children with learning disabilities experience.
