Content SummaryThis paper describes a small-scaled qualitative study exploring the perceptions of four first-year EFL engineering students with dyslexia regarding an online dyslexia-friendly English for Academic Purposes course at a Greek technical university. The course aimed at familiarizing students with popular academic genres and training them to use effective academic online searching and sourcing strategies. The theories underpinning the course design and materials' development included the MSL approach, metacognitive-genre awareness and cognitive apprenticeship. Data were gathered via semi-structured individual interviews. Findings indicate participants appreciated dyslexia-friendly affordances and perceived the course as relevant to their immediate academic needs.en
