How does RFB&D help people with dyslexia?
Dyslexia, the most common type of learning disability, refers to difficulty with reading. RFB&D taped textbooks provide an accommodation for students with dyslexia because they encourage a multisensory approach to learning. Students report that hearing the words while reading along greatly enhances their comprehension, reading speed and retention. In fact, recent studies have confirmed that people with dyslexia show greater activity in the part of the brain that processes sound and less activity in the area where the written word is processed.
