Abstract
Developmental Dyslexia (DD) is a common language-based learning difficulty which occurs across all cultures. Whilst various interventions are implemented to aid with reading difficulties, research suggests that phonics is still the most promising approach, yet the challenge in this approach has always been keeping pupils engaged and interested. Multisensory approaches have shown promise in keeping pupils engaged but they are time consuming and require high levels of teacher involvement. This paper suggests using 3D environments and gaming technology as a multisensory intervention to aid reading in Dyslexia. The paper proposes an initial framework and indicates the development and evaluation strategy for the framework.
