Download This thesis arises from the recommendations, particularly regarding the treatment of dyslexia and dysorthographia, emerging from the recent Guideline on Specific Learning Disorders (ISS, 2022) and from the growing use of technologies in educational and rehabilitation contexts.
This paper aims to investigate the effectiveness of technology-mediated treatment for dyslexia and dysorthographia. After an in-depth look at traditional treatments for dyslexia and dysorthographia, the focus shifts to the LENUOR Method, created by Dr. Alessandra Luci. This method involves task-oriented treatment using only technology and is a parent-led intervention that requires both outpatient and home-based settings.
Finally, the clinical case of an 8-year-old girl with dyslexia and dysorthographia, who underwent treatment with the LENUOR Method, was analyzed. The results show a clinically significant improvement in reading skills (speed and accuracy), with positive effects on written comprehension and spelling skills. This progress was found to be greater than expected from natural development, confirming the effectiveness of the intervention.
In conclusion, technology-mediated intervention is effective and cost-effective. Technologies offer advantages in terms of personalization, motivation, and accessibility of treatment and can be considered, from an ICF-oriented perspective, facilitators.
