Learning disabilities: Technology and interventions

Abstract

This article focuses on learning disabilities and various strategies and tools that can assist in addressing them. Learning disabilities may affect a child's ability to acquire skills in reading, writing, and mathematics, and are not related to their intelligence. Specific learning disabilities such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia are common and require specialized intervention methods. Diagnosis of learning disabilities can be based on three main categories of causes: biological, genetic, and environmental factors. Tools used for intervention include digital media, e-learning applications, and support systems such as robots and specialized software, which provide personalized solutions to enhance learning abilities.

One. Introduction

Modern education faces many challenges, especially in supporting students with specific learning disabilities. According to the World Health Organization, fifteen percent of the global population has some form of disability, and special education aims to address the needs of these individuals. However, the complexity and variety of learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dysgraphia, require specialized methods and technologies for support. Although there are many types of disabilities managed by special education, specific learning disabilities are the most common.
