EMPOWERING YOUTH MINDS: ENHANCING EDUCATIONAL STRATEGIES FOR STUDENTS WITH DYSLEXIA AT HIGHER EDUCATION

Abstract

This study examines the impact of natural settings on the academic performance and learning experiences of dyslexic students at higher education in Pakistan. It explores whether exposure to nature enhances focus, engagement, and overall learning outcomes. This research gathers data from parents, teachers, and educational administrators regarding the implementation of nature-based educational programs. A structured questionnaire and the Kruskal-Wallis H test analyzed statistical data to determine present dyslexia support system deficiencies and potential intervention solutions. The research findings reveal that all stakeholders endorse student-specific dyslexia support, yet institutions and teachers lack ample resources and qualified professionals, and there is insufficient awareness regarding dyslexia. Educational institutions lack proper tools and training solutions despite parent and teacher agreement about specialized intervention benefits for dyslexic students. Stakeholders shared similar challenges based on the Kruskal-Wallis test results, although they disagreed on implementing solutions.
