20.500.12556/RUL-164612 Typing fluencies of 12–13-year-old students with dyslexia and peers with typical development Several factors can impede the writing process of students with dyslexia. One recommended adjustment to help them overcome these writing challenges is the use of personal computers for writing. The research underscores the significance of effective keyboarding skills in optimizing the benefits of computer-based writing for these students, with touch-typing being the frequently recommended typing technique. Although research findings point to various reasons that indicate that students with dyslexia may face difficulties in developing fluent touch-typing skills, we found a lack of research in this area. In order to address this gap, in our study we examined and compared 12–13-year-old Slovenian students with dyslexia and their typically developing peers in terms of their existing, self-taught typing technique fluency, the fluency achieved in learning touch-typing and the fluency achieved in learning a simple finger-typing task. We found a significant difference between handwritten and self-taught typing fluency of students with dyslexia, with handwriting being a more fluent form of transcription. The results of students with dyslexia are significantly lower from their peers in handwriting fluency, self-taught typing fluency, touch-typing fluency and simple finger-typing task fluency. However, the learning trends for touch-typing and the simple finger-typing task do not differ between the groups of students. We comment on the differences found and make suggestions when considering typing as an additional or alternative transcription mode. dyslexia writing personal computers typing typing technique touch-typing typing fluency branje bralne spretnosti bralna pismenost raziskave 2000/2020 true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2024-11-05 14:07:18 2024-11-05 14:07:20 2024-11-22 14:55:02 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Str. 600–618 no. 6 Vol. 40 2024 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 028:159.92 1521-0693 10.1080/10573569.2024.2304758 186332163 Typing_Fluencies_of_12_13-Year-Old_Students_with_Dyslexia_and_Peers_with_Typical_Development.pdf Typing_Fluencies_of_12_13-Year-Old_Students_with_Dyslexia_and_Peers_with_Typical_Development.pdf 1 A368A5F17C451CB41FE87D5F10707010 4646bf1acb5b8e54369c36b7c3dc44d92e79b7c2ee4e706df97a7270450b71d7 e3279ef9-9b76-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=195169 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/10573569.2024.2304758 1 8e8e9cbf-9b76-11ef-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=195168 Pedagoška fakulteta Fakulteta za elektrotehniko Filozofska fakulteta 0 0 0
