Common Learning Disabilities:
Why Students
are Struggling
A learning disability is a disorder
that affects individuals of normal or
above average intelligence and the
manner in which they comprehend,
retain and express information. These
disabilities cross cultures with no tie
to racial or ethnic origin. They can be
inconsistent, appearing in grade school
only to disappear and then reappear
during the college years, and they are
nearly always extremely frustrating.
Because learning disabilities are not
always visible to educators, parents or
peers, students who have them face the
additional challenge of convincing others
that they exist and are a real handicap.
Any one of those tasks can create a
problem for someone with a reading
disorder. Scientists have discovered that a
significant number of people with dyslexia
are unable to distinguish or separate
the sounds in spoken words — two
fundamentals in the quest to read.
Reading disabilities also occur when the
reader can’t understand or remember
new ideas. This type of reading disorder
usually appears in upper grades, so it
might be something a college student has
only been dealing with for a few years.
Characteristics associated with a
developmental reading disorder include:
•
Slow reading rate or difficulty
modifying reading rate based on
difficulty of material
•
Uneven comprehension and
retention of material
•
Difficulty identifying important
themes
•
Incomplete mastery of phonetics
and vocabulary skills
•
Skips lines or words
•
Difficulty reading for long periods
of time
Types of Learning Disabilities
Developmental Reading
Disorder – Dyslexia
This disorder is quite widespread,
affecting 2 to 8 percent of elementary
school children. The fact is that reading
is actually a complicated process and
requires many different skills working
together. Consider that in order to read
successfully, one must:
10
•
Focus attention on the printed
marks and control eye movements
•
Recognize the sounds associated
with the letters
•
Understand words and grammar
•
Build ideas and images
•
Compare new ideas to current
knowledge
•
Store ideas in memory
A few of the characteristics associated
with a writing disorder include:
•
Difficulty planning and organizing
thoughts and topics on paper
•
Difficulty with sentence structure
•
Frequent spelling errors
•
Difficulty with proofreading and
editing
•
Short compositions
•
Slow writing skills
•
Poor penmanship
•
Inability to copy material
Developmental Arithmetic
Disorder – Dyscalculia
Dyscalculia is sometimes called math
dyslexia, and is similar in that actually
doing arithmetic involves several brain
functions working simultaneously. You
must recognize symbols and numbers,
memorize facts, align numbers and
understand abstract concepts. Any of
these may be difficult for someone with
dyscalculia.
Characteristics associated with a
developmental arithmetic disorder
include:
•
Incomplete mastery of basic facts
such as multiplication tables
•
Reverses numbers
•
Confuses operational symbols
(especially + and x)
•
Copies problems incorrectly from
one line to the next
•
Difficulty recalling the sequence of
operational concepts
•
Difficulty comprehending word
problems
•
Difficulty understanding key
concepts and applications needed
to assist in problem solving
Developmental Writing Disorder
Writing, like reading, involves several
brain functions. The areas of the brain
that handle vocabulary, grammar, hand
movement and memory all must be
capable and functioning. A problem in any
of these areas can cause a developmental
writing disorder.

What is FERPA?
The Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act (FERPA) was enacted in
1974. The primary purpose of FERPA
is to protect the privacy of student
information, and this protection is
achieved by controlling access to and
disclosure of students’ “education
records,” as that term is defined in
FERPA.
Faculty, staff, and administrative officers
at UNC Charlotte are required by FERPA
to treat education records confidentially,
unless a legal exception applies, or the
student provides written consent to
disclose. Students also have the right
to inspect and review their education
records and to request that their records
be amended.
parents without the student’s consent. For
example:
•
The University may disclose
education records to parents if the
student is a dependent for income
tax purposes.
•
The University may disclose
education records to parents if a
health or safety emergency involves
their son or daughter.
•
The University may inform parents
if the student who is under age 21
has violated any law or its policy
concerning the use or possession of
alcohol or a controlled substance.
•
A University official may generally
share with a parent information that
is based on that official’s personal
knowledge or observation of the
student.
•
For further information on disclosure
of student education records to
parents, please see University
Policy 402, Student Records, or
you may contact the Office of the
Registrar registrar.uncc.edu or the
Office of Legal Affairs.
For additional information, please see
legal.uncc.edu/policies/up-402.
Generally, when a student enters UNC
Charlotte, regardless of his or her age, all
rights afforded to parents under FERPA
transfer to the student, and the student’s
written consent is required for disclosure
of his or her education records.
However, FERPA also provides ways in
which schools may share information with
Helping Students
Get Enough Sleep
From the Stanford Parents’ Newsletter
By Dr. Ira Friedman,
director of the Cowell Student Health
Center at Stanford University
What’s enough sleep for
a college student?
Sleep needs are highly individual. Some
need as little as seven hours of sleep
per night, others need up to 10. The
norm is somewhere between eight to 10.
Unfortunately, many students don’t get the
sleep they need.
What do you say to students
who claim they don’t
have time to sleep?
They really don’t have a choice. Your brain
never rests, even when you’re asleep. It
20
remains electronically and metabolically
active, tending to its nighttime tasks as
you snooze away. Recordings of electrical
impulses from the brain show two distinct
kinds of sleep: REM (Rapid Eye Movement)
or “dream sleep,” and NREM (Non-Rapid
Eye Movement). Each type of sleep
performs a different but vital function.
NREM sleep helps you to attend and
concentrate during the day. REM sleep
consolidates short-term memory (such
as the new concepts, facts and skills you
learn in a day) into long-term memory,
enabling you to retain it.
What are the consequences
of sleep deprivation?
Without enough sleep, your attention
span is shorter, and you can become
increasingly irritable. Some of the best
research on sleep in general has been
21
done here at Stanford by researchers
such as William Dement, director of the
Sleep Disorders and Research Center.
He teaches a very popular course on the
subject, “Sleep and Dreams.” One of the
things he tells students is that about 55
percent of drowsy driving fatalities occur
under the age of 25. Sleep is key to mood
regulation, cognitive performance and
health in general.
What is sleep debt?
If you deprive yourself of sleep, then you
create a “sleep debt” and lose much of
the benefits of REM and NREM sleep that
you’ve missed. As long as you don’t get an
adequate amount of sleep, the debt grows
larger. When this debt is large enough, it
can take at least two weeks of getting the
right amount every night to catch up.
What if a student is having
trouble sleeping?
22
The first thing we suggest is that they
avoid caffeine, nicotine and heavy use of
alcohol. It’s not always easy in a dorm to
find a comfortable and quiet place, but
earplugs can help. The symptoms we
often see are that a student is waking up
a lot at night, having trouble falling asleep
or waking up too early in the morning.
If these conditions last for two or three
nights or even weeks, the cause is often
worry and stress. If they go on for months,
common causes may be general anxiety,
depression or side effects of medications.
Students should see a medical practitioner
in that case.
What about sleep disorders?
We tell students that if they sleep eight
to nine hours a night and are still sleepy
during the day, they could have a sleep
disorder, especially if they snore loudly
while asleep. There can be serious health
consequences, so students should discuss
the situation with a medical practitioner.
23
When Your Student
is Overwhelmed
Many students are guilty of it at one
point or another: holding “I had less
sleep than you did” or “I’m SO busy!”
contests. This tends to be a particular
phenomenon among student leaders,
who are often some of the busiest
students on campus. They swap tales
of all-nighters, crammed schedules
and three-page To Do lists, almost as
a badge of honor, to prove that they
are in demand and working hard.
If you suspect that your student is
swamped and feeling overwhelmed, there
are a few things you can do:
•
Ask them to list out their activities
and responsibilities for the
semester. What time commitment is
required for each per week?
•
Then, ask them about things they
want to accomplish this semester,
whether it’s doing really well in a
particular class, taking a Pilates
class or spending good time with
friends who will be graduating in
May.
•
•
Also, remind them of responsibilities
that they may not have considered,
such as getting their resume up to
par for a summer/fall internship,
researching grad schools or
volunteering at the local social
service agency as part of their
classwork.
•
Once the time commitments seem
to be laid out, talk with your student
about living with a crammed-full
schedule. Is this how they want to
operate? What happens if a friend
needs them for moral support
due to a death in the family? Will
they only be able to be half there
because their commitments are so
rigid? Or what if the opportunity
to go away on a retreat presents
itself? Will the backlog of things on
their “To Do” list prevent them from
grabbing the chance? Feel free to
use examples from your own life or
those you’ve observed to talk about
missed opportunities due to too-full
schedules.
•
You may also want to talk about
how some student leaders feel
valued proportional to how busy
and needed they are. Does your
Looking at their list of commitments,
ask them where they are going to fit
in their “wants.”
student identify with his work and
accomplishments more than he
identifies with just being himself?
You may only touch the tip of the
iceberg with this topic, as delving
into it deeper could benefit from the
assistance of a trained counselor.
•
Then, talk about what could be
cut from your student’s schedule.
Don’t make suggestions; let him
do that. What activity is on the list
that doesn’t feel totally worthwhile?
Could he be a member of an
organization instead of an officer?
What are some ways to whittle
the schedule into something
that is manageable while still
being satisfying? These kinds of
conversations can help students
take their personal health and wellbeing into consideration a bit more.
You can help your student see
that you’re not judging her by the
quantity of her involvements but by
the quality of her commitment. Have
some intentional conversations to
let her know that it’s NOT a contest
to see who can be the busiest and
get the least sleep. A balanced life
is much more worthwhile.
