Abstract

The Assistive Technology for Children with Learning Disabilities (ATCLD) is a computer software program developed for upper primary education learners of Eros Girls School (EGS) situated in Eros, Windhoek, Namibia. The notion of the development of ATCLD initiated from the idea of improving the occurrence of teaching and learning since the time the traditional methods applicable to mainstream classes were used at EGS. The ATCLD was implemented to improve academic performance of learners with dyslexia in EGS and will be implemented across various needy schools around Namibia. The specifications of this application follows from the fact that people with dyslexia have problems related to English language and mathematics (dyscalculia). ATCLD technologies improve dyslexia learners' capabilities through repetition to aid the learners developing specific skills. ATCLD can be generalised to accommodate other learning deficiencies such as language processing disorder and audio processing disorder.
