“…The children with autism have characteristics of difficult to focus, get bored quickly, and unable to control unwanted motoric movement (Al Irsyadi & Rohmah, 2017).

“…A significant place in this technique is also occupied by listening to music, mostly folk songs in the native language (especially effective is listening if the child's mother sings). Johnston et al 2018 [13] also hold this viewpoint. As noted in their study, "fundamental elements of music have been shown form social relationships and promote cognitive progression," and also "motivate children to interact differently with their environment through providing novel and engaging approaches to music interaction and creativity" [13].…”

AIM: The purpose of the work is to study the specifics and evaluate the effectiveness of the use of art-therapeutic and gaming technologies based on musical folklore in the course of rehabilitation of children with health limitations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The socialization of such children depends largely on the characteristics of health, the principles of their training, and the effectiveness of the chosen methods. This justifies the need to analyze the practical experience and evaluate the results of efforts of specialists who deal with special children. RESULTS: The results of the conducted psychological and pedagogical experiment on the use of art-therapeutic and gaming technologies based on musical folklore have shown that singing and playing classes are highly effective, and improving the physical and mental health of children is possible even in very severe cases, for example, in cases a delayed psychoverbal development (DPVD) and early childhood autism. Early start of corrective training provides the greatest degree of correction of physical and mental disabilities, which is associated with the high level of activity of the brain and nervous system in children. At that, two-thirds of the wards, for whom the methods of training at an early age were chosen correctly, acquire a condition of a healthy person, i.e. begin to live a normal life, learn as well as their healthy peers, and thus, previously diagnosed health problems remain in the past. CONCLUSION: Analyzing the results of classes with children allows concluding that the training of troubled children takes place in several stages, through which they gradually move from the development of basic communication skills and control of their body, from socialization and learning the correct, socially acceptable patterns of behavior to more complex tasks associated with pre-professional education, voice-training, and breathing, work on sound quality, range of voice, etc. Features of the use of art-therapeutic technologies are that children with health limitation are able to achieve the level of professional vocal training and overcome specific difficulties with motor skills, speech, and behavior, which are stated by the diagnosis. The teacher needs to clearly understand at what stage of development is each individual child, and choose individual methods of training in accordance with the peculiarities of the child’s health. The effectiveness of art-therapeutic technologies based on musical folklore is due to the synthesis of the possibilities of musical-creative and developmental-gaming activities. Musical folklore allows the child not only to master his skills of speech but also to realize himself and feel own body, to be able to learn new things and realize it, to acquire the skill of communication with other people, the ability to plan actions, to think logically, and to comprehend the world around. All this makes the lessons extremely valuable and important tool of pedagogical assistance to children with health limitations.

“…Future directions of digital transformation are being explored in education as a result of advancement in information technology [39,40]. The rapid development of technology and its success in other areas has led most educators to become more positive about technology-enabled education [41,42]. In terms of faculty readiness to choose technology in teaching before the pandemic, most teachers preferred to follow traditional teaching strategies and maintain their old instructing habits when unfamiliar with virtual tools [43].…”

COVID-19 has affected traditional instructional activities. Home-based isolation and restrictive movement measures have forced most learning activities to move from an offline to an online environment. Multiple studies have also demonstrated that teaching with virtual tools during the COVID-19 pandemic is always ineffective. This study examines the different characteristics and challenges that virtual tools brought to online education in the pre-pandemic and pandemic era, with the aim of providing experience of how virtual tools supported purely online learning during a health crisis. By searching keywords in public databases and review publications, this study tries to summarize the major topics related to the research theme. These topics are the characteristics of learning supported by technologies in pre-pandemic and pandemic era, the challenges that education systems have faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study also compares the functions, advantages and limitations of typical virtual tools, which has rarely been done in previous studies. This study tries to present the features of virtual tools that support online learning and the challenges regarding real-life risk scenarios, and tries to provide educational institutions with a distinct perspective for efficient teaching and learning in future potential health crises.
