Underpinning implications of instructional strategies on assistive technology for learning disability: a meta-synthesis review.

CONCLUSION: Performance of identified assistive tool types using PISC framework is analysed. Findings are reported and discussed. Implications for Rehabilitation Available assistive tools are not learning disability specific. So, in order to differentiate the learning path of a Learning Disabled learner from that of a Non-Learning Disabled learner, study is conducted under four attributes of PISC framework: Problem Manifestation, Underpinned Implication, Instructional Strategy and Cognitive Strength. Available assistive tools in the field of remedial education are found to be problem centric and only able in dealing with single academic learning need of a learner with specific learning difficulty. The mapping of the available assistive technologies under PISC framework provides a detailed structure for the selection of most suited assistive tool as per learning requirement of a learner with learning disability. This study also conclude the non- availability of the High-tech assistive tools and Educational Software specifically designed for learners with learning disability.
