Interesting dyspraxia developments to consider

Two scenic construction students, a first year and a second year, exhibit dyspraxic tendencies. The second year has visited the Dyslexia and Dyspraxia office and was found to be 'highly likely' to be dyspraxic. (He joked that he got halfway through the test and was told to go get diagnosed.) He intends to make an appointment to be thoroughly tested and diagnosed soon. The first year on the other hand demonstrates many dyspraxic tendencies but does not want to find out if he has it, and finds the whole idea embarrassing. I've asked each student if I can keep tabs on their relationships with their working and learning over the course of the next term and both agreed. Interesting!
