Whilst trialling the use of laptops by dyslexic students in school, we found that it helps some and hinders others. We have 5 students of varying ages, 11-16, and they have been using them for 3 months now. 2 have had the opportunity to use them for controlled assessments but under exam conditions, so no internet or spell checker. 1 took to it with total enthusiasm, the other refused and still wrote by hand. Has anyone else had any experiences of students using laptops in exams?
