Non-Verbal Learning Disorder

Introduction

Non-verbal Learning Disorder or disability (or NLD) can be defined as the neurological syndromes that results in the damage of the right side of the brain and is of utmost importance for intermodal integration. The Non-verbal learning disorders are mostly undiagnosed, because the reading skills are considered to be the basic indicators that depict the economic wellbeing of most of the public school systems (Keller, Pp: 103-108).

The Non-verbal learning disorder has a major impact on the academic performance, social interaction, and hence is a unique challenge for the teachers, parents and adults (Forrest, Pp: 129-126).

Effects of Non-Verbal Learning Disorder

People who suffer from NLD have a significantly lower IQ than their verbal IQ because of their visual-spatial troubles.

Children

Children with Non-verbal Learning Disorder are likely to drift from the path of your groups and home and are lost easily. They drop things during the lunch time and also face difficulties in dressing up due to the problems they face in coordination. Children with NLD face problems related to spatial skills that contemplate their weakness of apprehending the information that is non-verbal(for example drawings, images, and the time duration) and non-verbal tasks such as puzzles (puzzles) (Volden, Pp: 112-128).

Various children suffering from Non-verbal Learning Disorder use words that are commonly used by adults. These children learn to read before they reach the school-going age this is due to their effective apprehension in listening. They often try to increase the awareness of their environment by asking endless questions from adults, rather than exploring it themselves. The inaccuracy of perceiving visuals, physical awkwardness and difficulty with integrating information that is spatiotemporal, makes it extremely difficult for them to live in the world. This compensation may compound the problem, since it deals less with the child in physical examination except as they learn about relationships between objects in space (Keller, Pp: 103-108).

A good forecast for the child possessing the Non-verbal Learning Disorder is dependent on the appropriate intervention and early identification. Special education is a series that is individually designed to support and provide services that allotted to a student. A child is neither in nor out of the a special education; the plan must be put through in each class and it should be made sure that the child attends that program, during breaks and recess, in each field trip and at each meeting with people. Since each student is unique, his IEP (Individualized Education Plan) provides the framework that allows individuals to receive appropriate CAMS throughout the school day. The successful implementation of integration requires careful planning (Volden, Pp: 112-128).



Academic Problems

Students with NLD generally seem to have higher cognitive skills than the average, because of his strong verbal, but often show academic difficulties when they reach secondary school. In the early school years, their spatial and coordination problems are difficult writing, algebra, Telling Time, reading, and color maps and maintain focus. In a high school, more complicated verbal language is based on the spatial relationships and non-verbal ...
