Inclusion is critical to the education system, as all students are entitled to a high-quality education. However, inclusive education is more than creating equality - it's about strengthening every learner’s capacity to become the best they can. Technology has now become a potent tool in this journey, and it has transformed the way educators help students with special needs. The utilization of technology has a limitless prospect of learning, development, and prosperity for students who face certain learning challenges.

One of the biggest benefits that technology brings to special education is the ability to provide personalized learning experiences. This is made evident through systems like "Canvas" and "Blackboard," which help teachers to create individualized learning paths, use multimedia material, and track students' performance in real time.

Computer software can also adjust to each learner’s different way of learning and speed of processing the information, working with their strengths and weaknesses. For instance, apps can provide a huge collection of e-books that are easily readable through the adjustment of fonts, colors, and reading speeds. Likewise, there are other platforms that offer adaptive learning paths which allow students to advance at their own pace with individualized feedback and support. Using these strategies, educators can facilitate differentiated learning that focuses on the distinct learning capacities of students with disabilities.

Assistive technology has also helped in enhancing inclusivity in education with varied tools including speech to text software, screen readers, and alternative input devices, all of which make it easier for students to internalize content and concentrate on learning. There are also some apps which intelligently transcribe speech into written text to help express the ideas of students with dyslexia or severe writing disabilities. Additionally, some online tools are enriched with learning support features like text-to-speech, word prediction, and vocabulary support for students with learning challenges to make reading and writing easier.

Technology also provides students with communication deficits like autism or speech difficulties with communication devices that facilitate socialization and expression. Augmentative and alternative communication apps offer customizable visual communication boards or speech to text features, which allow nonverbal students to communicate clearly and effectively with classmates and teachers. This eventually leads to increased social inclusion and self-confidence. Moreover, there are apps that contain a symbol-based communication system where users can build sentences and communicate by a grid of symbols or images.

In addition, technology has the potential to carry out and even enhance the student with special needs' social-emotional development. Social skill training apps employ video instruction and visual modeling to communicate critical social skills, introducing things such as greetings, joining conversations, taking turns to contribute one’s perspective, and emotional regulation.

Thanks to this, learners with communication challenges are better able to gain self-confidence and solve social problems more efficiently. Moreover, virtual reality (VR) platforms provide immersive environments where learners can practice and learn the recognition and interpretation of facial expressions and body language.

Many students with special needs experience sensory processing difficulties, which can impact their ability to focus and engage in learning activities. Sensory integration apps leverage technology to provide calming sensory experiences and help regulate sensory input. These applications use interactive games and breathing exercises to teach self-regulation skills, empowering students to manage stress and anxiety more effectively in the classroom and beyond. Similarly, sensory stimulation apps offer visually engaging activities that promote relaxation and sensory exploration.
