Information and Communication
Technology has a unique and valuable
contribution to make to the learning experiences of pupils with special
educational needs.
Specifically with special
needs learners ICT is used to support the development
of reading and writing skills , but also as a tool to develop social relation skills.
ICT supports children
who find it difficult to access curriculum, perhaps due to
physical, mental or just concentration problems. ICT can help, sometimes by
using modified equipment but sometimes simply by the motivation it offers. But
the benefits of ICT go much further than this and extend all the way to providing
complete access for children who would otherwise be denied an education
altogether.
