Embracing Dyslexia: The Interviews - Margie Gillis, Ed.D.

Margie Gillis, Ed.D. is president and founder of Literacy How (www.literacyhow.com). She believes that there is no more important job than teaching a child to read. As a teacher and a researcher, Margie's goal is the same - how best to teach teachers to implement research-based practices in the classroom.
In this video, Margie sheds some light on the importance of literacy and why schools still do not completely understand dyslexia. She also provides fantastic advice for teachers and parents on what a child with dyslexia needs and how parents can best advocate for their child in school, particularly during the IEP meeting.

Abstract
Literacy subject
Teaching and Teacher Education:
This video sheds light on why schools still do not completely understand dyslexia (phenomenon literacy) make them critical learners, challenging issues. This video’s major concern was on the spelling and grammar that the users distort. The parents and the teachers need to be literate first in this regard so that they can properly educate Literacy is a pragmatic domain that helps people utilize language and life skills for their meaningful survival. Literacy has gone beyond 3 R’s reading, writing and arithmetic. Social skills are the cornerstone of any literacy program in the world.
As a Dyslexic I have a severe difficulty in recognizing and understanding written language as a viable language or as a communication system.
with its own set of conventions or special words caused by low intelligence or brain damage. Written language is Artificial intelligence that must be learned based on false wisdom. Dyslexia: A medical condition affecting the brain that makes it difficult for someone recognizing and understanding written language, read and spell words correctly.
If I see a word as a phenomenal icon, I can use it as a dyslexia treatment.
Wisdom Constituting or relating to a phenomenon: Homeostasis Memory: the ability to make sensible decisions and judgments based on personal knowledge and experience a good sense shown in a way of thinking, judgment, or action. A word icon can be seen as accumulated knowledge of life or of a sphere of activity that has been gained through experience
Capable of both restoring the natural mechanisms that regenerate Homeostasis memory. Phenomenon perceived by or perceptible to the senses, rather than the mind, and thus having at least an apparent external existence. A picture is worth a 1,000 words. Dyslexia uses Homeostasis memory: A picture, icons, shapes that represent a recognizable form or object. If words (that is separate or different) become icons to imagine or have an image of somebody or something in mind symbolizing a movement or field of activity. Homeostasis memory to perceive somebody or something with a sense or the senses will allow it to become a diploid sense:
possessing two matched sets of images that represent a sensed recognizable form or object that is a Phenomenal acceptable thing for somebody to do or say, any of the faculties by which a person or animal obtains information about the physical world, e.g. sight or taste to perceive a word as somebody or something with a sense or the senses. This is how to best teach teachers to implement research-based practices in the classroom. Phenomenon teaching will replace teaching by subject throughout the country’s classrooms.
