dc.description.abstract | Abstract. The aim of this study is to explore adult students’ descriptions and understandings of their reading
and writing difficulties, and to describe the ways they are copying with them. In higher level studies,
information is typically gained by reading and giving evidence of knowledge acquisition in writing.
When students have difficulties with these essential academic skills, studying and lifelong learning
can be hard work as well as time-consuming. General understanding of dyslexia and reading
difficulties at the higher education level has improved, although considerable ambiguity remains
about what these mean in practice. This is a qualitative, interview-based study that seeks to improve
our understanding of these difficulties. The data were analysed using content analysis, and our
findings are presented in terms of: (a) the social experiences of students; (b) their expectations and
solutions with respect to their academic progress; and (c) the individual strategies employed for
copying with reading and writing tasks. | fi |
