ABSTRACT

With the limited resources and training for educators handling APD learners, numerous educators struggle in understanding the AP disorder. Also, they are struggling in providing mechanism and strategies to engage students who has APD. After conducting assessment on the different e-learning tools for auditory disorders, it was assumed that the teacher's confidence level in handling students with APD would increase and would be effective in engaging learners. Seven (7) LSEN teacher validated the different e-learning applications, four (4) e-learning applications were assessed based on the content design principle. Based on the assessment conducted, the respondents tested the application and compare the level of engagement feature the different e-learning tools could provide. It was found out that the utilization of e-learning tool specifically the Hearbuilder e-learning tool proves to be helpful and encourages engagement with ADP learners.
