Main Article Content
Abstract
The objective of the research was to design curricular adaptations based on Information and Communication Technologies for students with special educational needs. It was carried out in the Educational Unit of the Provincial Council of Carchi, Ecuador, with a qualitative, descriptive, transversal and field methodology. An interview was conducted with eight elementary school teachers and a representative of the Student Counseling Department to determine the special educational needs of a study group of 60 students, as well as the relevance of curricular planning. The findings identified several deficiencies in 16 students such as difficulty in Mathematics, reading and writing problems, behavioral disorders, autism and mild intellectual disability. In addition, it was evidenced that there is no relevance in the didactic planning that includes curricular adaptations related to special educational needs. Based on this, digital tools and strategies for students with special educational needs are proposed in order to strengthen pedagogical practice and contribute to learning, inclusion and development of skills in these students. This study emphasizes that curricular adaptations for special educational needs are an alternative for priority attention to students with various limitations.
