When I researched this topic, I came across a website that has links to various websites where teachers or parents can buy programs to help their students or children who have problems with learning. There is even a portion of the website that has links to software that can aid in helping adults with special needs.
The website:
http://www.iser.com/special-needs-software.html which stands for Internet Special Education Resources, offers quite a variety.
As I scrolled down and read through the software descriptions, Smart Tutor caught my eye. I clicked on the link, and it brought me to another website. Smart Tutor is a program designed to help children who suffer from various learning disabilities, including ADD, ADHD, Aspergers' Syndrome and even Autism. The tutoring program is designed to help children aged kindergarten through fifth grade. The website:
http://www.smarttutor.com/home/special-needs.asp states that the techniques they have designed for reading and mathematics are all researched-based and award winning. They have various features listed such as individualized learning paths, learning at the child's pace, each lesson provided offers a complete tutorial, a review, and a quiz at the end of the lesson, fun online learning, immediate, motivating and positive feedback from the website and reports that are easy to read for the parents and teachers. The program itself is $17.99 per month, but I personally think that the price is right on key. It's not too expensive, and the details about the program make it all the more appealing. I think parents would be spending more money on tutors per session and therapists to find out why their child isn't learning the way they should be. I think this solution is smart, for the child, the parents and the household budget!
