Im creating a broshure on the symptoms of cholera for a project and it says: create a public campaign to educate the masses of the illness. and i have no idea what that means.

A mass is a group of people. Basically, you want to educate a 'large group of people' about the illness that you are campaigning about. when it says educate the masses, it means educate society or the people that reside in the society as a whole, as a collective.

the masses are the people

I am conducting a research project and I would like to implement a program within schools for individuals with dyslexia, so that their learning abilities will be assisted.

I am directing this question at children and adults who have symptoms of dyslexia, as well as family members and teachers who have been in contact with such individuals.

The type of things I would like answered are:
What type of supports do you have that are beneficial to you (in school or otherwise)?
What supports would you like to see in place (in school, or otherwise)?

With many thanks!
