A Cross-Sectional Assessment of Knowledge and Awareness of Public-School Teachers Towards Learning Disability in Children of Dharmapuri District

Author(s) Bhagyashri Bagarwal
Country India
Abstract Introduction: Introduction: Research suggests that the occurrence of specific learning disabilities in Indian children is on the rise. Most of the existing studies emphasize the importance of teachers' understanding, which is closely linked to the early detection and intervention of these learning disabilities. This study aims to explore the level of knowledge and awareness regarding learning disabilities among educators in the Dharmapuri district of Tamil Nadu, India.
Materials and techniques: The knowledge and awareness of public-school teachers in the Dharmapuri District regarding learning impairments was evaluated using a cross-sectional study methodology. 200 representative participants were found and chosen using a convenience selection technique, and data was gathered using a self-administered structured knowledge and awareness questionnaire.

Results: The level of knowledge on learning disability among children found to be moderate among the majority of the teachers (45%) where a substantially large number of participants showed an adequate level of knowledge (33.5%) and only a small number of participants (21.5%) had an inadequate level of knowledge. A vast majority of participants (73.5%) were aware of learning disability amongst children.

Conclusion: In light of findings, there is a need to spread awareness and knowledge of learning disability among teachers and the government must get involved in raising awareness and knowledge of these types of hidden disabilities.
