The use of ICT in the education of students with dyslexia

In this article, a systematic study of the research literature is carried out regarding the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and its applications as means of supporting and assisting reading for students with dyslexia. The main objective was to examine the use and effectiveness of this type of intervention in serving the learning needs of students with dyslexia. For this purpose, a bibliographic review of relevant research was conducted. The results of the research showed that the different forms of ICT, such as computers, educational platforms, specific software programs, electronic games and various multimedia applications, are able to be used both as a means of early prevention of the risk of dyslexia in children and in enhancing the reading skills of dyslexic children. Probably the positive effect of ICT on students with dyslexia is related to children's familiarity with it, recommending a particularly pleasant learning environment for children. In the future, further research is needed regarding the use of ICT in the diagnosis and management of dyslexia.
