One of the basic prerequisites for acquiring reading and writing is phonological awareness. A child with hearing impairment does not correctly identify speech sounds, reproduces errors in reading, and subsequently in writing. The development of auditory perception and phonological awareness are essential for the complete development of the child. The purpose of this research was to promote the use of digital educational resources, to develop skills in the phonological process and to implement play activities that motivate the child to learn. It is intended to answer the research question: “Can digital educational resources be a facilitator of the promotion of auditory perception and phonological awareness in a hearing impaired child?”. After the theoretical framework, an intervention plan was drawn up and through the digital educational resources: “Cochleando”, “Comunikit: Rhymes and Initial Sounds” and the Sign Language Dictionary “Spread the Sign”, we conclude that they are an asset to development of phonological awareness in the teaching-learning process.
The present work intends to address the importance of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the teaching and learning process of a child with educational special needs in a pre-school context. The child in our study has a structural chromosomal anomaly, which makes the overall development atypical for her 6 years of age. Her difficulties lie at the level of attention, concentration, motricity and language. After an evaluation of the difficulties and possibilities of the child, the main objective of the educational intervention was to motivate the child and to optimize the learning of the basic contents essential for her entrance into the 1st CEB school, as well as to promote her active participation and involvement in a task. The family was involved to achieve continuous and systematic intervention through playfulness. The results of the intervention were obtained through direct and participatory observation with the child, and it is possible to observe some progress in its overall development.
The current school is searching for, more than ever, to contribute to the inclusion of children and young people with DID, in conditions that are not always the best, if we consider the different difficulties experienced every day. The Digital Technologies, in association with Music and the concept of Music Therapy, can make a strong contribution in the reduction of these difficulties, using available software. In this article we propose to present, by way of example, Youtube importance its potential as an intervention tool, through Music, with individuals with Intellectual and Developmental Difficulty.
