摘要

The study intends to assess the influence of digital educational technologies on the effective implementation of Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) for children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Since IEPs are considered to be the most essential documents regarding the delivery of special education services and focus on the unique needs of children, they are to be assessed comprehensively. IEPs relate directly to the enhancements that might be realized in ensuring that social communication and interaction are issues that can be addressed through digital education technologies. The study finds that the use of digital educational technologies in the form of interactive educational tools facilitated engagement improved communication and social interaction among children with ASD. Digital educational technologies made it easier to customize education to meet the unique needs of each child and also to simplify the design and implementation of their IEPs. However, the study also points out the difficulties that educators face, such as a lack of special training in teaching with digital technologies and somewhat insufficient technological equipment. It also highlights that implementation involved collaboration across disciplines. The research stressed the role of the family in helping the child become more proficient in using digital technology to enhance the quality of the educational process. In view of these findings, the development of the study would propose the creation of training programs for teachers to integrate digital educational technologies in practice within Individualized Education Program execution. It also suggests that such resources are provided to schools and specialized centers on. The importance of enhancing collaboration among interdisciplinary teams is also highlighted to ensure the successful implementation of IEPs. Additionally, families should be supported in fostering a conducive learning environment at home that leverages digital technologies. Lastly, the study suggests the necessity of further research to assess the long-term effects of digital technologies on the performance of children with ASD, with an emphasis on educational outcomes as well as social and psychological development.
