Abstract

Dyslexia is one of the specific learning disability in reading, writing, and listening. Identification of students with dyslexia symptoms is very important so they can attend classes with special learning method and not being left behind in learning. In most of the schools in Malaysia, screening dyslexic students is performed manually by the teachers using paper-based screening tool before they are referred to psychologist for further test to confirm the students' disabilities. This research was conducted to develop a computer-based screening tool by implementing multimedia elements that suitable for dyslexic students known as Smart Lexic as an alternative to the manual screening. The results of this research indicate that multimedia elements can influence the performance of dyslexic students since the results obtained by the students are more reliable compared to manual screening test method. It is shown that Smart Lexic application has a great potential to be used as an alternative approach to identify the probability of students to have dyslexia.
