REFLECTIONS AND PRACTICES ADOPTED FOR DYSPHASIA IN A REGULAR SCHOOL
Keywords:
Dysphasic children, Dysphasia, Communication Disorder, Special Needs, SLI, SabahAbstract
Child-language-acquisition disorders or dysphasia is a communication disorder. It affects either the oral expression alone or the oral expression and comprehension. Although this disorder is well studied in other developed countries, there is no documented research on dysphasic children in Sabah. This has led to the disorder being misunderstood. This article reflects upon the experience and practices of a doctoral researcher who acted as a support for a dysphasic non-English speaking European child’s school life in order to help the child cope in a regular private English international school classroom. The aim of this article is to contribute to the scarce documentation of special needs education in Sabah.
