Tech to empower students with SEND: Case studies from the classroom

In this two-part session, educators from Malaysia and Indonesia share powerful case studies showing how thoughtfully applied technology—from visual scheduling apps to creative digital platforms—can enrich learning experiences and empower students with additional needs across diverse educational settings.

Vaclava Svobodova, Head of SEN department at Spectrum International School in Malaysia will highlight how visual scheduling apps can support students with autism and ADHD by reducing anxiety and improving time management. Learn practical strategies, explore tools like Brili and Choiceworks, and discover how simple, visual routines can boost independence, focus, and emotional wellbeing across classroom, therapy, and home environments.

Drawing on his experiences at Al Firdaus MYP High School in Indonesia, teacher Danang Catur Satrianto will share how inclusive technology enables SEND students to thrive. He will showcase digital tools that foster creativity and confidence, supported by a four-stage teaching framework. Discover how technology can complement—rather than replace—teachers, bridging student potential with authentic achievement through inclusive, strengths-based learning.
