171: Dyslexia awareness and how technology can help

Aimee Cave is a current practising SENDCO in East Yorkshire with sustained experience of creating good provision in her school, including orchestrating the school becoming the first ADHD friendly school in Yorkshire. She also runs her own SEND Consultancy business. Aimee has completed her NASENCO Award, is an Accredited Attachment Lead and has been trained by Whole School SEND in supporting other schools to review and improve their SEND provision.As part of her work in school Aimee started using (and then working with) Lexplore Analytics. Lexplore Analytics combine the latest in both AI and eye-tracking technology with the “human touch” of good teachers. By analysing correlations and patterns in eye movement data, our machine learning models are able to quickly and objectively determine reading attainment. Some of these patterns might even elude most human beings or other computer programmes, therefore, their introduction into the classroom can help offer teachers an entirely different perspective when it comes to reading, as well providing the valuable information needed in minutes.https://www.lexplore.com/gb/@LexploreUK (Twitter)@lexploreuk (Instagram)Lexplore Analytics UK (Facebook)https://www.bdadyslexia.org.uk/http://nigelmansell.co.uk/If you would like to support our GoFundMe campaign to create a valuable resource for our children based on the wisdom of our inspiring guests please click below.https://uk.gofundme.com/f/education-on-fire-book-fundraiserShow SponsorThe National Association for Primary Education speaks for young children and all who live and work with them.
