Dyscalculia: News from the web:
Children with developmental dyscalculia find it difficult to understand and manipulate numbers, and to acquire mathematical knowledge.

The importance of symbolism in mathematics is such that the finding seems contradictory with the notion of dyscalculia. The writer discusses three concerns, in recognizing that other aspects of the analysis by Skagerlund and Träff are well controlled.
