Abstract :
Based on results from the technologies for children with individual needs project and two case projects, we propose a new multidisciplinary framework for research between computer science, educational technology, and special education. The framework presents a way to conduct research that aims at developing new methods for technology-enhanced special education and for developing adaptable software and hardware tools for individual needs in educational settings.
