Abstract
This study looks into the nuanced impact of learning technologies on the behavioural development of People of Determination (people with disabilities) in the UAE. Using a mixed-methods approach, the study looks at how various technological interventions affect cognitive and adaptive skills in people with developmental and intellectual disabilities, motor disabilities, and Down syndrome (Dari et al., 2020). The findings show a strong link between specific teaching methods and improved learning outcomes, especially in areas like color recognition and language acquisition. Furthermore, the study emphasizes the superiority of combined interactive learning and activity reinforcement strategies over individual approaches, implying a path to more effective and tailored educational interventions. This study adds to the growing body of knowledge on inclusive education by shedding light on the practical application of technology to promote behavioural development and independence for People of Determination in the UAE and beyond (Oswal et al., 2025).
