Τhe plethora of research based upon the use of new technologies with reference to special disorders. The aim of the conducted research is to proceed into an in-depth examination regarding the use of innovative technologies- technological tools in occupational therapy intervention, as well as with the frequency of their use in special education. At the same time our study examines in which disorder types occupational therapists prefer to use new technologies so as to achieve the required learning result during the intervention. In order to conduct this pilot study, we collected data from 27 occupational therapist participants. A short questionnaire was constructed. The data showed that occupational therapists make use of new technologies, more in children than in adults. Moreover, the majority of occupational therapists use new technologies as a reward for patients, while avoiding their use during the starting point of the therapy session, to introduce new goals and/ or proceed into a generalization of them. |
