Resumo
As competências da leitura e escrita são consideradas fundamentais na sociedade em que vivemos. No entanto, muitos disléxicos, apesar das dificuldades com que se deparam nesses domínios, conseguem ‘sobreviver’ à Escola e alcançar futuros promissores, exercendo com êxito variadíssimas profissões.
Alguns pesquisadores acreditam que as pessoas disléxicas têm até uma maior probabilidade de serem bem-sucedidas, pois, por conseguirem aprender com métodos convencionais, estimulam a sua criatividade e desenvolvem uma habilidade para lidar melhor com problemas.
É tendo em conta estes pressupostos, que se pretende perceber quais as estratégias usadas neste processo, muitas vezes pessoal, de aprender a aprender.
O inquérito por questionário foi a técnica adotada para a recolha da informação. Os inquéritos foram respondidos por vinte e cinco indivíduos, embora houvesse a ambição de uma amostra mais considerável.
Pelos resultados obtidos constatámos que “escrever muitas vezes as mesmas palavras para não as errar”; “acompanhar as palavras com o dedo para não me atrapalhar” e “procurar estar muito concentrado para perceber o que me pediam” são as estratégias mais utilizadas pelos inquiridos. São ainda apontadas outras, como: utilização de mnemónicas e decorar palavras na íntegra; usar sempre cores para ajudar a decorar e relacionar matérias; ajuda por parte dos pais e de explicações privadas.
Reading and writing skills are considered extremely important in current society. However, many dyslexic people can overcome school and achieve promising futures working in several fields despite their difficulties in these domains. Some researchers believe that dyslexic people are more probably to be well succeeded as they learn by conventional means, they show more creativity and develop and ability to deal with their problems in a more effective way. Having these issues in mind, we want to understand the strategies used in this process, most of times of learning to learn. The questioner was used as a mean to collect the information needed. It was answered by twenty-five individuals, although we had the ambition to have been answered by more people. By the results it was stated that “writing several times the same word as to get it right”; “follow the words with your finger” and “ stay focused to understand what was asked” are the most used strategies by the enquirers. Others used mnemonics and memorize words; using always the same colors to relate things are also used as well as the parent’s help and tutorial classes.
