Thirty peer-reviewed articles were analysed to examine (i) the types of AI technologies implemented in mathematics education, (ii) evidence on the effectiveness of AI interventions in improving learning, (iii) the benefits and limitations of AI in special education, (iv) comparisons of AI applications with traditional methods in terms of personalisation, engagement, and accessibility, and (v) applications of AI in supporting specific disabilities. The findings indicated that intelligent games, chatbots, personalised learning systems, and intelligent tutoring systems were the most frequently utilised AI-powered tools. All studies assessing effectiveness reported positive impacts on mathematical achievement, as well as benefits such as reduced mathematics anxiety, increased motivation, and enhanced independence among learners. Reported challenges included high costs, ethical concerns, teacher preparedness, and a digital divide limiting equitable access. Compared to traditional methods, AI offers more accurate diagnosis of learning difficulties, greater opportunities for personalised learning, and increased accessibility. AI showed promise in addressing specific disabilities such as dyscalculia and autism through adaptive and diagnostic tools. The review concluded that AI should be viewed as a complementary tool that extends teachers’ capacity to individualise mathematics instruction for students with SEN.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">786-806</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tuğba Pürsün</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">LISTENING COMPREHENSION AND RETELLING SKILLS AMONG STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Problems of Education in the 21st Century</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">learning disabilities</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">listening comprehension</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">relational research design</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">retelling skills</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2025</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">December/2025</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://journals.indexcopernicus.com/search/article?articleId=4714177</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">83</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">continuous</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Listening comprehension and retelling are essential skills for academic success. However, students with learning disabilities experience difficulties in both areas, which can negatively affect their academic achievement. It is noteworthy that the relevant literature includes only a limited number of studies examining the correlation between these two skills in students with learning disabilities. This study aimed to examine the correlation between listening comprehension and retelling skills in students with learning disabilities. The study was conducted using a relational research design, with a sample of 181 fourth-grade primary school students diagnosed with learning disabilities. Data were collected through the Informal Reading Inventory and analyzed using multiple linear regression analysis. The findings indicated that both the listening comprehension and retelling skills of students with learning disabilities are at a moderate level. Furthermore, their listening comprehension scores were found to be lower than their retelling scores. Among the components of retelling, only the ability to convey details significantly predicted listening comprehension skills. These results highlight the importance of fostering listening and retelling skills in both future research and classroom practices, and suggest that educational activities should be designed specifically to strengthen these interrelated skills.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">823-839</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sotiria Tzivinikou</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">UNIVERSAL DESIGN FOR LEARNING - APPLICATION IN HIGHER EDUCATION: A GREEK PARADIGM</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Problems of Education in the 21st Century</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">higher education</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">learning disabilities</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">universal design for learning</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2014</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">July/2014</style></date></pub-dates></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">http://oaji.net/articles/2015/457-1421876950.pdf</style></url></web-urls></urls><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">60</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Discontinuous</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Universal Design supported by literature as an appropriate and effective procedure can help all students including the learning disabled ones to improve their accessibility to written materials (Evans et al., 2010; Rose &amp; Meyer, 2002). The present study reports a UDL application in higher education. More specifically, it aimed to investigate if the revision of the study guide of a Pedagogical Department according to the UDL principles helped the students to improve their access to crucial information regarding their studies. A quantitative method based on pre and post evaluation of the UDL revision of the study guide was employed. The results showed that this revision was regarded by the students as helpful and efficient as they could be well-informed about their studies and ready for making decisions related to their future careers. These findings could have an important impact on higher education course design, instruction and the produced academic written stuff, and finally, the university could become more accessible for all students.</style></abstract><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Original article</style></work-type><section><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">156-166</style></section></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Anastasia  Ferentinou</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Panagiotis  F.

The educational implications of the studies in the field of teaching mechanics refer to the instruction of essential concepts such as force, pressure and energy. However there are few research studies of teaching mechanics to students with learning disabilities especially in Greece. In this paper we present a case study of teaching mechanics to students with learning disabilities in the second grade of a general Greek high school. The purpose of this study is to examine the implementation and the efficacy of teaching mechanics to students with learning disabilities of the second grade of a Greek high school by using the conceptual mapping. An experimental teaching procedure took place in a physics resource room for students with learning disabilities of the second grade of a general high school by using the conceptual mapping during a sequence of successive instructions for the concept of energy. A control teaching procedure without the use of conceptual maps was realized in the same resource room during the instructions for the concept pressure in order to compare the two teaching procedures. In both phases, experimental and control teaching procedure, tests were administered before and after each in-struction so as to investigate the prior to the instruction knowledge and the learning outcomes after it. The questions of the student with learning disabilities during the instructions were recorded and analysed in order to define his interest in mechanics by using conceptual mapping. The analysis of the collected data yielded several results. The use of conceptual mapping improved the student’s performance on achievement tests and contributed to the accomplishment of the teaching objectives. However the use of the maps was not successful in stimulating the student’s interest for the concept of energy. We also dis-cuss the implications of our findings to teaching practices and future research in the field of teaching physics to students with learning disabilities.
