Main Article Content
Abstract
Children with Autism require more attention and care from their peers, particularly those who are active in their schooling. There are far fewer online learning programs and materials available for schooling children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. However, because the use of technology can aid in the education of autistic children, e-Learning systems are one of the areas of inquiry that should be included in autistic children's education in Oman. This study intends to determine the existing state of educational support for autistic children in Oman, as well as to provide a specific solution to aid in the education of autistic children. Because quantitative approaches are appropriate for this type of research, a questionnaire survey was utilized to gather the necessary data. The researchers discovered that impairment in social contact is one of the main challenges faced by autistic children in their daily lives, based on the information received from the Oman questionnaire and the findings of the literature study. Furthermore, these children had moderate autism. There is a shortage of schools, centers, and employees who are meant to be trained to educate autistic children, according to the findings. The findings of this study suggested that a specific e-Learning system be designed and implemented in Oman to support autistic children, which would give them with rapid support under the supervision of the surrounding community, regardless of their background or specialty.
