Use of Assistive Technology to Accommodate Students with Writing Disabilities

At present, there are various kinds of assistive technology tools in the market to help students who struggle in writing. Hence, those tools are not suitable for students with learning disabilities in Thailand, we then need to design and develop our own assistive technology. Similar to other disabilities, students with learning disabilities will also need suitable assistive technology tools for them. However, for students with learning disabilities in writing, it is important to note that assistive technology cannot cure but will assist them in their writing. It does not replace good teaching, but it can be used in addition to well-designed instruction. It can help the students be more self-confident and work more independently. Therefore in this study we also review the work from previous researchers and conclude with the recommendation for the path to develop suitable assistive technology for students with writing disabilities
