The Reality of Using E-Learning to Teach Students with Intellectual Disabilities

Abstract

: This paper focuses on the use of educational technology to enhance the learning, communication, and interaction abilities of students with intellectual disabilities. It highlights the challenges of using this technology in teaching students with intellectual disabilities, including high costs, the need for training, and the limited capabilities of the students themselves. Studies show a low rate of educational technology usage with students with intellectual disabilities, but they also demonstrate the positive impact of such technology when utilized. The paper recommends adapting tools and software to meet the needs of students with intellectual disabilities and providing necessary training for teachers and parents.
