Assistive technologies, such as text-to-speech software, screen readers, and adaptive learning platforms, are empowering students with disabilities to access education more effectively.

Educational technology is empowering students with disabilities by providing assistive tools that enhance learning accessibility.

Examples in Action:

  • Closed Captions & Subtitles: Video platforms like YouTube offer captions for students with hearing impairments.

Impact:

  • Ensures equal learning opportunities for students with disabilities.
  • Increases engagement through multi-sensory learning approaches.
  • Supports independent learning and boosts confidence.
