Strengths of Dyscalculia opens the door to reframing dyscalculia not as a deficit, but as a cognitive difference with unique strengths, offering a fresh, strength-based perspective rooted in positive psychology.
Packed with practical insights, this book provides actionable strategies to foster psychological safety, reduce math anxiety, and nurture strengths alongside addressing challenges. Through a qualitative study of gifted adults with dyscalculia, the book delves into their lived experiences, exploring the challenges they faced in educational systems ill-equipped to support their dual exceptionality, the impact on their self-concept, and the strategies they developed to navigate daily life.
Whether you’re an educator, parent, researcher, or someone navigating dyscalculia yourself, this book advocates for a transformative shift in understanding and addressing dyscalculia—celebrating neurodiversity, fostering inclusive environments, and empowering twice-exceptional individuals to thrive inside the classroom and out.
Ashleigh D’Aunoy is Director of Enrichment, Innovation, and Talent Development at the Episcopal School of Acadiana where she works to meet the needs of the school’s diverse learners through a strength-based, talent-focused lens. This book is based on firsthand research conducted for her dissertation.
