The IDL Literacy Intervention is a speaking computer-based multi-sensory system that supports learners with dyslexia and other learning difficulties to increase their reading and spelling ages.
International Dyslexia Learning Solutions (IDLS) provides specialist multi-sensory software programs to schools around the world. Our main goal is to provide learning support to those most in need and our software is used by thousands of children across the globe. Our software was developed to support the growing number of young people who are falling through the gaps in literacy and numeracy.
IDL Literacy has been around for over 40 years and can dramatically increase reading and spelling ages for those with dyslexia or low literacy ability. In addition, research has shown it can also have a hugely positive impact on the confidence and self-esteem of those using the program.
The Effectiveness of IDL Literacy – A Summary of Research
IDL Numeracy has been designed for children with dyscalculia, those struggling with maths or who are experiencing maths anxiety. It includes a fully graded course with interactive activities and brand new Animated Maths Tutorials to support students and help them progress.
IDL Wellbeing is an exciting new product designed to integrate with a whole-school approach to mental health, toughness and behaviour management. Following 2 years of development alongside a psychologist, IDL Wellbeing has been developed using contemporary theories and mindfulness practices. Studies have proven that teaching resilience and emotional literacy can reduce incidents of poor mental health later. IDL Wellbeing adopts an integrated approach to support children, aged 7 -13, to understand and address unwelcome emotions as well as encourage positive ones.
IDLS has been part of the Ascentis family since 2013. Ascentis is an educational charity with a mission to enable learners to realise their full potential and achieve their lifelong aspirations.
IDL uses sight, sound, touch, and voice to improve literacy and mathematical ability. Links are made between the visual, auditory and tactile pathways.
Teachers can easily see how pupils are achieving against expected standards for their age group along with identifying areas they are struggling with most.
IDL has been simply designed to make it easy for pupils and teachers to use. Pupils are able to work independently or with minimum supervision, whilst teachers can track and monitor progress effortlessly.
Pupils are able to work independently on the programme, allowing for larger intervention groups.
Pupils can use IDL from school or at home, on a computer or tablet. The cloud is used to store pupil progress so they can pick up where they left off.
After receiving an email from International Dyslexia Learning Solutions (IDL) offering free training, a member of staff attended a session which resulted in IDL delivering a training session to all the teachers within Birmingham’s Pupil and School Support service on the 20th March 2018.
The service liaised with IDL in order to offer an opportunity to Birmingham schools to pilot the IDL programme for a period of ten weeks with a focus on reading and spelling difficulties for Special Educational Needs pupils. 20 schools across Birmingham took part in the IDL pilot study during April to July 2018.
