Synchronous virtual classroom for student with ADHD disorder

摘要

This paper focuses on the ADHD disorders of students between 6-18 years old; the aim of this study is to find out what has been done with advanced technology for students with ADHD. Providing education for Students with learning disabilities is a significant challenge, as these types of students need special learning tools. Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common type of disorder which causes learning difficulty and disability. Students with this kind of disorder usually have a limited span of attention, and they are easily distracted. In addition to the possibility of using advanced learning tools for enhancing teaching processes for students with ADHD, this paper evaluates current learning management systems (LMS) that are used in schools and investigates what should be modified in the current (LMS) to make them more helpful for students with ADHD. Research shows that students with ADHD can significantly benefit from the application of ICT tools for academic purposes. Advanced technologies can be used to improve the teaching process for these students through virtual learning; adding a virtual classroom at schools would be very helpful for these kinds of students especially if this classroom is designed well.
