Slide 4 Definitions – Quick Guide

• Dysgraphia is a learning disability that affects writing, which requires a complex set of motor and information processing skills. It can lead to problems with spelling, poor handwriting and putting thoughts on paper. People with dysgraphia might have trouble organizing letters, numbers and words on a line or page.

Slide 5 Definitions – Quick Guide

• Dyslexia – a language-based processing disorder can hinder reading, writing, spelling and sometimes even speaking.

• Dyspraxia is a disorder that affects motor skill development. People with dyspraxia have trouble planning and completing fine motor tasks.

Slide 6 The Process of Learning

• Learning is the process of acquiring information.

• What are the cognitive factors that enable students to show what they know and can do?– How do they collect, sort, store, and retrieve

information? (Miller, 2007)

– How do they receive, perceive, process, and remember information? (Elliott, 2007)

Slide 20 Classroom Learning Demands on WM• Common classroom activities that impose

simultaneous demands on storage and processing:– Listening to a speaker while trying to take notes– Following complex instructions– Decoding unfamiliar words– Writing sentences from memory– Mental arithmetic – Impact of weakness may show up later with greater

demands for cohesive writing and comprehension

Slide 21 WM and Oral Language• Strong relationship between verbal memory

subsystems and both language development and oral language comprehension (Crain et al., 1990)– Phonological STM & Verbal WM

• Developmental delays and disorders in language have often been attributed to a dysfunction in verbal WM

Slide 22 WM and Language• Oral Language Comprehension

– WM plays critical role in constructing and integrating ideas from a stream of successive words

– Primary function of Verbal WM is to extract meaning to phonological input

• Spoken Language– WM less involved unless syntactic structure or

meaning of sentence is confusing

Slide 23 WM and Oral Language Impairments• The weak phonological memory performance of

individuals with Oral Language Impairments may originate from their slow recognition and discrimination of speech sounds (phonemic awareness)

• Articulation rate may be a cause of memory span deficits; impacting language processing

• Slow processing speed may allow auditory traces to fade before meaning can be extracted

• Difficulties with word retrieval

Slide 24 Working Memory & Written Language

• Written expression is a complex activity that requires the integration of several cognitive processes and memory components.

• Heavy emphasis on Working Memory especially executive WM, verbal WM, and visual WM.

• Emphasis on phonological STM

Slide 25 EF and Writing• Can’t generate ideas

– Independent journal writing a problem• Perseverates on topics• Difficulties organizing written output

– Begins but can’t conclude in cohesive manner– including format of arguments, and grammatical

and spelling errors– Dysfluent writing, doesn’t transition well within text

• Unaware of mistakes, poor editing

Slide 29 Learning Disorders• Processes associated with Learning

– Reading and Writing processes-not actual reading or writing but cognitive components related to the efficient acquisition of or support of reading and writing Phonological processing/awareness Orthography-connecting visual form to sound Morphology-connecting visual form to meaning through rule

application

Slide 30 Learning Disorder• Language functioning is one of the most critical

cognitive domains for learning– Word knowledge and naming – Syntax/language structure– Repetition– Working memory

Encoding Manipulation Auditory versus visual (spatial and details)

– Each component is necessary for verbal expression and comprehension

Slide 31 Learning Disorder• Cognitive functions associated with learning

problems– Executive Functioning

Mild Inhibitory control problems, particularly with Math DX – Sensorimotor-

may have some fine motor issues with writing dx.

– Automaticity Ability to process basic cognitive processes with minimal

use of working memory or strategic processes

Slide 42 Some “Myths”• If the child is referred for writing difficulties, I

don’t need to worry about math.• One of my middle school students won’t write;

he’s just lazy.• Auditory discrimination is an important area to

assess for writing.• Finger succession tasks are unimportant.

Slide 52 Remedial vs. Compensatory Interventions• Remedial Interventions

– Have the expressed goal of correcting a deficit by directly addressing the area of weakness.

• Compensatory Interventions– Emphasize using the individual’s cognitive or

memory strengths and assets, in an effort to bypass the deficit, thereby reducing its impact on learning and performance.

– Strategy Training

Slide 57 Metacognition Training• The conscious use of executive control

processes• Two aspects of Metacognition:

– Self-awareness The knowledge of one’s skills and cognitive abilities,

understanding how one’s skills and abilities match up with task requirements, and knowing which processes and strategies will lead to successful goal attainment.

– Self-control The ability to consciously monitor, manage, control, and

evaluate one’s cognitive activities and select strategies for use.

Slide 58 Metacognitive Training• Key aspects of metacognitive interventions

include teaching the individual:– To become aware of his/her processing deficits and

strengths;– To select an appropriate strategy for the task at

hand;– To self-monitor progress toward an objectives;– To revise or change the strategies when necessary;– To self-evaluate.

Slide 60 Rote vs. Relational Strategies• Rote Strategies:

– Basic rehearsal strategies (e.g., simple repetition)– Minimal demands on WM resources– Primary purpose of maintaining items in

phonological short-term memory– Simple to teach and learn

• Relational Strategies– Involves higher level WM processing– Increased retention of information– Mnemonics; visual imagery– Attaching meaning to information

Slide 61 Phonological STM Interventions• Most STM Interventions involve rehearsal

training.• Rehearsal Strategies

– Simply saying the material over and over to oneself– Serial repetition process; allows information to be

maintained in WM for longer periods of time, thus enhancing short-term recall and facilitating long-term storage encoding

– Most basic memory strategy– Increases verbal WM

Slide 62 Additional Phonological STM Interventions• Naming letters and objects• Repeating spoken sentences• Reciting nursery rhymes

– Highlights the phonological structure of language• Rhyming games

– Enhance phonemic awareness and the ability to store phonological information

Slide 63 Verbal Working Memory Interventions

• Elaborative Rehearsal– Associate meaning with stimuli – Keeps information active in WM without repetition

and also facilitates moving information to LTM.• Semantic Rehearsal

– Brief sentences using the word to be remembered

Slide 64 Verbal Working Memory Interventions• Chunking

– Pairing, clustering, grouping, or association of different items into units that are processed and remembered as a whole; thereby facilitating short-term retention and encoding into long-term storage.

• Paraphrasing– A strategy that builds off of both rehearsal and

chunking. Students restate information in their own words; requiring that they reorganize and condense a large amount of linguistic information into smaller, well-integrated, and more personally meaningful units.

Slide 65 Visuospatial Working Memory Interventions• Should be used with individuals with severe

limitations I verbal working memory, such as language and literacy disabilities.

• Primarily consist of visual mnemonics– Recode verbal information into visuospatial

information

Slide 66 Mnemonics• Visual Imagery

– Involves transforming verbal content into visual information

– Beneficial when used with students who have language deficits or deficits in verbal WM

• Pegwords– Numbers from one to ten are associated with

pictured rhyming words (e.g., “one-bun, two-shoe”)– Good strategy or remembering numbers &

sequences• Loci

– Memorize order of rooms; associate items to be remembered with each room
