Title
Towards the Prediction of Dyslexia by a Web-based Game with Musical Elements.
Abstract
Current tools for screening dyslexia use linguistic elements, since most dyslexia manifestations are related to difficulties in reading and writing. These tools can only be used with children that have already acquired some reading skills and; sometimes, this detection comes too late to apply proper remediation. In this paper, we propose a method and present DysMusic, a prototype which aims to predict risk of having dyslexia before acquiring reading skills. The prototype was designed with the help of five children and five parents who tested the game using the think aloud protocol and being observed while playing. The advantages of DysMusic are that the approach is language independent and could be used with younger children, i.e., pre-readers.
