Summary:
The physicality and multisensory aspect of tangibles make them particularly suitable for children with special needs. However, there is little empirical research on tangibles for supporting cognition and learning difficulties. This paper is about research that investigates the role of tangibles in supporting attention, verbal memory and abstract thinking of children with learning needs, particularly when collaborating with peers.
Discussion:
I thought that this paper has good goals. It is good to try to help those with special needs. With the advancements in technology, there should be many ways to help them. I think that this will help.
