Abstract-Recent development in special education includes the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) to assist students during their lifetime. ICT is now also recognized as a tool which ensures access to knowledge and learning resources. In this paper we present an overview of the most representative studies of the last decade (2001-2010) which deal with the two important issues in the field of special education, diagnosis and intervention. One important advantage of these tools is that they can be employed by teachers and parents as well, to adapt education to the needs and abilities of pupils. The studies chosen will be classified according to the areas of needs they serve.

“…In order for an ICT intervention tool to be effective it is always best to discuss before implementing any adaptations to practice. Fujiyoshi et al (2010) introduced a testing system with a digital audio player and document structure diagrams for newly blind users who have difficulties in Braille or print.

Abstract. The use of information communication technologies (ICTs) in a special educational needs (SEN) environment has gathered accumulative evidence around it during the last decade (2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010). In many settings ICT has become an important element of the learning and teaching process. ICT assessment tools can better recognize and integrate learning difficulties across students, while computer-based intervention tools can play a significant role in a child's life. In this report we provide a brief overview of the most representative articles for applications used for assessment and intervention purpose after classifying them according to the areas of needs they serve.

“…Currently, in order for a person with total visual impairment to be able to carry out ENEM, the test in Braille and human assistance are available in two types of specialized services: reader 7 and transcriber 8 assistances (Ministério da Educação, 2012a). The need for these services links the performance of the test by the person with a disability to the abilities and qualification of other people, who are subject to human flaws, which may affect the performance of the candidate during the test (Fujiyoshi, Fujiyoshi, & Aomatsu, 2010;Sanchez, Espinoza, & Campos, 2014).…”

RESUMO: atualmente, para pessoa com deficiência visual total realizar o Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM), disponibilizam-se materiais adaptados e auxílio humano, este com a finalidade de leitura da prova, preenchimento de gabaritos e transcrição da redação. Consequentemente, para a realização da prova, a pessoa com deficiência depende fortemente de outras pessoas. O objetivo deste estudo é identificar as questões de acessibilidade existentes no processo atual do ENEM e apresentar uma solução que, por meio de um aplicativo com acessibilidade digital denominado ENEM Acessível, viabiliza a participação da pessoa com deficiência visual total com autonomia no exame. Com base na metodologia de Projeto Centrado no Usuário e em pesquisa de levantamento qualitativa, o aplicativo foi especificado, construído e avaliado. Os resultados do estudo, que contou com a participação de 33 pessoas com deficiência visual total em suas várias etapas, demonstram que as barreiras de comunicação atualmente existentes podem ser eliminadas com o uso do computador e do aplicativo ENEM Acessível, permitindo que pessoas com deficiência visual total realizem a prova de ingresso no Ensino Superior com autonomia e em condições de igualdade com os demais participantes.
