Abstract

Dyslexia is a theme that commits teachers to define strategies and methodologies suitable for guaranteeing educational success even for dyslexic students. In this sense, the development of teaching technologies has supported teachers on the one hand and (dyslexic) students on the other hand: this does not mean that technology is the solution to teaching/learning problems. The purpose of this article is to build a table of process indicators that can be useful to teachers as a guide for designing the learning process. Process in which learning experiences, supported by new technologies, can be organized in different ways, in order to meet the needs of the entire class group, intended as a group of heterogeneous students as far as learning (dyslexic and not dyslexic students), but also personal life styles are concerned. Schools will increasingly face these problems in the future, and should be able to solve them with major changes in their identity.
