INSTRUMENT PROPOSAL FOR SCREENING LEARNING DIFFICULTIES IN STUDENTS IN STUDENTS

Abstract

We present in this text a proposal to track learning difficulties in the acquisition of reading and writing with the possibility of reducing the main problems that can be signaled by the teacher during the monitoring of student performance, understanding this teacher as an important actor in the process of early identification. In the first moment, a presentation of the Theory of Dynamic Systems is presented, which bases the elaboration of this instrument, once its criteria of evaluation of the items can undergo variations throughout the process. In the second moment, a view of the instrument composed of twenty three items and five evaluation criteria of the student, this instrument is compared to the results of the anamnesis interview conducted by the professional responsible for the assessment with the student responsible. Finally, it will be presented how this instrument has helped to improve the learning of many children who seek psychological accompaniment with a generic description and in most cases, this difficulty could be described as "teaching" that does not favor the emergence of the peculiar development of each student, respecting their particularities, especially their family and social context. It is worth noting that it is a screening tool and not a diagnostic tool, which can serve other professionals who work in the evaluation and follow-up of children with learning difficulties.
