Abstract—This study evaluates the PROKET Technology Program’s efficacy in aiding students with Specific Learning Disorders (SLD) in enhancing their developmental skills, focusing explicitly on attention and memory by employing an experimental design and individual case study method. A total of 15 students were enrolled in the study who had specific learning disabilities in Amman, Jordan. PROKET is an interactive digital learning program based on OSMO principles. Additionally, it provides training and assistance with assistive technology. It combines physical action with artificial intelligence to develop confidence, thoughtfulness, and creativity. As part of the PROKET, developmental difficulties in attention and memory are targeted and measured specifically. As a result of the study, it has been shown that PROKET has a significant positive effect on students with specific learning disabilities with regards to arithmetic means on pre- and post-tests for each of the performance measures on developmental difficulties as a whole.

Keywords—assistive technology, PROKET technology program, specific learning disorders, attention and memory
