Abstract

The aim of this study is to determine the importance of technology in the education of children with dyslexia. In this general purpose study, primary schoolteachers who use technology in their education were asked about the benefits of technology on children with dyslexia. Dyslexic students were asked if there were changes in their learning, thanks to technology. The research group of this study consists of classroom teachers and students with dyslexia. The sample of the study consists of 15 teachers and 18 students working in primary education. The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of technology on students with dyslexia in the classrooms of primary schoolteachers. For this purpose, separate interviews were conducted with teachers and students. Three computer teachers, two special education teachers and one language and speech therapist assisted in the preparation of the research questions and the final form was given. Interviews of teachers and students were recorded, which was later approved. Content analysis was used in the analysis of the data collected in the study. As a result of the research, it was concluded that the use of technology in the special education process is beneficial. It can be said that students who have difficulty learning under learning disabilities find it easier to learn, thanks to technology.
