Abstract

Children of any age group are in their objective thinking stage, hence the importance of using tools consistent with their cognitive and mental characteristics.  This study uses a descriptive-analytical approach, with an attempt to scrutinize the perception of instructional technology and media effects in conveying the instructional concepts to special kids. As such, a lesson plan based on painting skill was selected for this research study. The participants consisted of 40 male and female students from grade 1-6 elementary school from Ahwaz city (Khouzistan, Iran) which were sampled using systematic cluster sampling method, with an applied and experimental nature. The research tools were the paintings obtained from children both before and after the education. Based on these paintings, a questionnaire with 20-question was designed. The results indicated that using instructional technology and media in a correct and sophisticated manner would facilitate and accelerate better and more efficient teaching of painting to children particularly special kids.
