Title:
The Experience of dyslexic student at higher education
Introduction:
My interest in dyslexia in higher education from my own experience comes from my personal experience also around 10% of the UK population are thought to have dyslexia, with 4% severely affected (British Dyslexia Association, 2012).

The Data Protection Act 1998 is an act of the United Kingdom Parliament showing the ways in which data and information about individuals may be used and handled. The main use of this act is to protect individuals against misuse or abuse of their personal data/information.
Fontana and Frey (1994) report that there is a growing number of researchers who believe that much of traditional interviewing is unethical, whether wittingly or unwittingly, as some of the techniques and tactics of interviewing can sometimes manipulate the respondents while treating them as objects or numbers rather than individual human beings.
Informed consent provides participants with sufficiently detailed information on the study so that they can make an informed, voluntary and rational decision to
