Abstract

This research work is a comparative study that investigates how information communication technology (ICT) affects dyslexic students' academic performance in higher education. The study looks at the efficacy of several ICT tools, such as text-to-speech software, mind-mapping software, and spelling and grammar checkers, in enhancing dyslexic pupils' organizing, reading, and writing skills. The study found that the use of ICT tools and receiving individualized coaching can greatly increase dyslexic students' academic success in higher education. Pupils who received individualized guidance and had access to the essential ICT tools performed better academically overall and received higher grades than those who did not. Additionally, the study contrasts the experiences of dyslexic pupils who get individualized and adaptable support with those of those who do not. The results show that using ICT tools and receiving specialized coaching can considerably increase dyslexic students' academic success in higher education. The study underscores the need for more research in this area and offers insightful information on how ICT may be used to benefit dyslexic pupils.
