%0 Journal Article %T The affective-cognitive learning method (MACPA) %A Gladys Molano Caro %J Alteridad : Revista de Educaci¨®n %D 2012 %I Universidad Polit¨¦cnica Salesiana %X This paper explores a teaching method that was conceived through the daily interaction with students who were documented by their teachers for not being able to read and write in a timely manner. Although it synthesizes a new way of teaching children and young people to read and write, it also becomes a method for students who are in a "cognitive limbo", who show a learning disability in grasping these key subjects for their educational process. %K method %K reading %K writing %K learning disabilities %U http://alteridad.ups.edu.ec/documents/1999102/3570785/v7n2_Molano.pdf
