Learning and adapting to technology are often found to be challenging for people with intellectual disabilities, despite significant efforts made by educators and caregivers. Traditional teaching methods are frequently observed to fall short in meeting their needs, resulting in both difficulties and reduced effectiveness. These challenges are recognized not as faults of the learners or educators but as indications that existing techniques require improvement. In response to this, the development of a mind mapping storyboard has been proposed, designed to transform written information into clear, engaging, and visually appealing images. Text is converted into intuitive visuals with the intention of creating a more accessible learning experience.

It is hoped that a tool will be provided that not only makes learning more enjoyable but also improves educational outcomes by aligning with the unique ways information is processed by these students. By employing this innovative method, the gap between traditional teaching methods and the needs of learners with intellectual disabilities is aimed to be bridged, ultimately supporting their educational growth and technological adaptation.

摘要

Learning and adapting to technology are often found to be challenging for people with intellectual disabilities, despite significant efforts made by educators and caregivers. Traditional teaching methods are frequently observed to fall short in meeting their needs, resulting in both difficulties and reduced effectiveness. These challenges are recognized not as faults of the learners or educators but as indications that existing techniques require improvement. In response to this, the development of a mind mapping storyboard has been proposed, designed to transform written information into clear, engaging, and visually appealing images. Text is converted into intuitive visuals with the intention of creating a more accessible learning experience. Through this approach, an effort is made to capture the interest of students with intellectual disabilities and enhance their understanding and retention of information. It is hoped that a tool will be provided that not only makes learning more enjoyable but also improves educational outcomes by aligning with the unique ways information is processed by these students. By employing this innovative method, the gap between traditional teaching methods and the needs of learners with intellectual disabilities is aimed to be bridged, ultimately supporting their educational growth and technological adaptation.
