To view Universal Access to Education as a concrete and attainable goal, teachers must be aware of the ICT potential and be able to acquire the necessary knowledge and operational skills to select and use ICT as an appropriate and promising tool for promoting equity in educational opportunities by assisting children with special needs in overcoming barriers to learning, thereby increasing their school achievement, as well as their autonomy and willingness to learn. The paper highlighted the definition of ICT, types of ICT items and how ICT is being used and describe the benefits of ICT to students with special needs.
