Description

The technology checklists are designed to help pupils and staff identify and explore technology to help address specific needs arising from dyslexia.

The checklists can also support learners with autistic spectrum conditions and other additional needs. 

It starts with each of the challenges listed in the Pupil Checklist for Dyslexia available on the Addressing Dyslexia Toolkit and suggests some strategies and tools to explore and evaluate.

The tools suggested are mostly freely available or via your Glow log-in so everyone in a Scottish state school should be able to access them. There are separate links to each of the most popular devices in the columns Windows, Chromebooks (ChromeOS) and iPad (iOS).

These are ‘universal’ supports. They may or may not be the best tools to meet learning needs as paid apps and resources may be better - but this should help you to get started with technology.
