Dyslexia and 3D printing

Dyslexia: News from the web:

Due to the difficulty with standard learning skills like reading and writing, those with dyslexia must learn to harness their creativity in other ways. While it isn’t easy to completely shy away from these skills, working with technology like 3D printers helps dyslexics mimic similar thought processes. For example, 3D printing allows a creative individual to develop an original work, just as a writer might. Then he or she can review, edit and rework it until the desired outcome is me, similar to the editorial process for a written work. It allows those with dyslexia to experience creating a concept and revising it until the end goal is met, a thought process which often enables further innovation and creativity.

This is how it is to read with Dyslexia

Dyslexia: News from the web:

Dan Britton, a graphic designer from the UK, has created a font  and images to show the world how it would be to read as a dyslectic.

The font is not designed to show you precisely what letters look like to a dyslexic person, but rather to slow normal readers down to the pace of someone with dyslexia and teach them about the experience, figuring out what words the letters form slowly and painstakingly. “It simulates the frustration and the work and the outright embarrassment of reading with disability,” Britton says.
