Whois & Analysis for learningally.org

Learning Ally, which was previously named Recording for the Blind & Dyslexic or RFB&D, is a non-profit volunteer organization operating nationwide in the United States.

It produces and maintains a library of educational accessible audiobooks for people who cannot effectively read standard print because of visual impairment, dyslexia, or other disabilities.

Dyslexia, also known as reading disorder, is characterized by trouble with reading despite normal intelligence.

Different people are affected to varying degrees.

Problems may include difficulties in spelling words, reading quickly, writing words, "sounding out" words in the head, pronouncing words when reading aloud and understanding what one reads.

Often these difficulties are first noticed at school.

When someone who previously could read loses their ability, it is known as alexia.

The difficulties are involuntary and people with this disorder have a normal desire to learn.

Learning disability is a classification that includes several areas of functioning in which a person has difficulty learning in a typical manner, usually caused by an unknown factor or factors.

Given the "difficulty learning in a typical manner", this does not exclude the ability to learn in a different manner.

Therefore, some people can be more accurately described as having a "Learning Difference", thus avoiding any misconception of being disabled with a lack of ability to learn and possible negative stereotyping.

Reading is a complex "cognitive process" of decoding symbols in order to construct or derive meaning (reading comprehension).

Reading is a means of language acquisition, communication, and of sharing information and ideas.

Like all languages, it is a complex interaction between the text and the reader which is shaped by the reader’s prior knowledge, experiences, attitude, and language community which is culturally and socially situated.

The reading process requires continuous practice, development, and refinement.

In addition, reading requires creativity and critical analysis.

Consumers of literature make ventures with each piece, innately deviating from literal words to create images that make sense to them in the unfamiliar places the texts describe.

Because reading is such a complex process, it cannot be controlled or restricted to one or two interpretations.

There are no concrete laws in reading, but rather allows readers an escape to produce their own products introspectively.

This promotes deep exploration of texts during interpretation.

A parent is a caregiver of the offspring in their own species.

In humans, a parent is the caretaker of a child (where "child" refers to offspring, not necessarily age).

A biological parent is a person whose gamete resulted in a child, a male through the sperm, and a female through the ovum.

Parents are first-degree relatives and have 50% genetic meet.

A female can also become a parent through surrogacy.

Some parents may be adoptive parents, who nurture and raise an offspring, but are not actually biologically related to the child.

Orphans without adoptive parents can be raised by their grandparents or other family members.
