DESCRIPTION:"Dyslexia\, ADHD\, Autism: Encouraging and Supporting All L2 Le
 arners"\nSara Lee\nAssociate Teaching Professor of German\, Arizona State 
 University \n\nUp to 20% of people in the U.S. have dyslexia\, which means
  that about 4-6 students in every classroom struggle with reading and writ
 ing\, spelling\, and executive functions. How does this manifest in second
  language acquisition?\nThis workshop will introduce dyslexia from a medic
 al and educational perspective and explain how it presents in second langu
 age learning. We will conduct error analyses on writing samples to determi
 ne which errors are developmentally expected in language acquisition or co
 uld point toward auditory processing challenges or dyslexia.\nIn the secon
 d part of the workshop\, we will focus on classroom methodology to support
  learners with dyslexia and consider how universal design can help address
  the heterogeneity in learner needs in general activities and assessments.
