摘要：AbstractThe project sought to determine if two groups of children with different learning difficulties could benefit from using the same multimedia learning system. The project focused on children under the age of 11 with either Autism or Down's Syndrome. These children are often taught in mainstream classrooms together without special elearning systems. The results indicate that benefits can be drawn from the use of multimedia systems in learning for those who have learning difficulties. The specially developed system proved beneficial for the autistic children, which highlights the potential benefits that a multimedia system can have as a learning tool. However, the project as a whole shows that a system aimed specifically at a disability set may be more effective than a general system trying to incorporate the needs of different disability groups
