“…Some typical symptoms used in this study include [14] According to the National Center for Learning Disabilities (NCLD), dyscalculia is a term that refers to a variety of learning disabilities involving mathematics including difficulty solving arithmetic problems and understanding mathematical concepts. In school-age children with language processing disabilities may have difficulty solving basic math problems using addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division where 56% of children with dyslexia also show poor math achievement, and 43% of children with problems dyscalculia indicates poor reading ability [17]. Some typical symptoms used in this study include [14]  Low scores on math assignments or numerical concepts.…”

Learning disabilities are generally defined as disorders of one or more basic psychological processes including the use of spoken or written language shown by children with poor ability to hear, think, read, write, spell, or solve mathematic problems. The purpose of this research is to classify learning disabilities in children using a fuzzy expert system as a step in recognizing the learning abilities of school-age children so that treatment can be done early on. This expert system is built with several modules, namely a knowledge base, memory, fuzzy inference engine, and a web-based interface. Answers from users will be processed using a fuzzy expert system based on the scores obtained from each category of reading, writing, math and logic, and heredity. The output of this system answers whether the child is normal, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, or a combination of the types of learning disabilities. The expert system was conducted on 20 school-age children (6-12 years old). The classification results of three types of learning disabilities using a fuzzy expert system showed an accuracy of 95%.

Learning disabilities (LD) are problem that influence the brain capacity to receive, process, analyse and store information. These processing issues can interfere with learning fundamental abilities, for example, reading (Dyslexia), writing (Dysgraphia) and math (Dyscalculia). Fortunately, in today's world technology, we have numerous option techniques for educating and supporting fundamental skills in reading, writing and math such as mobile learning by using mobile app. However, the research in mobile app design model for Dyscalculia children is still scarce: very few studies have focus on how to design and develop appropriate mobile app for Dyscalculia children from the perspective of mobile app designers and developers. The purpose of this paper is to identify the appropriate components that should be included in the mobile app model. Interview sessions were conducted with Dyscalculia practitioners that involved a teacher, paediatric and an educational psychology. This has resulted in identifying 16 components that can be included in the mobile app design model.
