Beskrivelse
Summary:The last decade has seen a growing interest in curriculum access for people with needs, and in particular those with Down syndrome. This study shows the results obtained from an application designed and developed to help people with Down syndrome learn the basic mathematical operations. The development methodology is based on a literature review of the various tools and methods used in teaching mathematics to this specific population, and through a pilot test conducted with four learners, it is shown that using applications on devices such as tablets and smartphones facilitates teaching people with support needs.
