Dyslexia: Study of compensatory software which aids the mathematical learning process of dyslexic students at secondary school and university

The disadvantage dyslexic students suffer at school is not limited to reading and spelling, but it includes mathematical aspects too. The use of assistive technologies may be particularly beneficial to students with learning disabilities. However they do have application limits preventing them from being utilized to help the study of scientific subjects. This paper introduces a research idea in this field, which aims to realise a scientific editor which allows for reading and writing mathematics with the support of a speech synthesizer
