Two studies with three severe intellectual disabled participants were carried out. The aim was to follow a leisure routines schedule system in study 1, and to learn the sequence of steps to independently manage TIC in study 2. The independent variable was the introduction of visual strategies. The dependent variables were the number of ordered choices for ICT usage –study 1- and the number of correctly sequenced steps for ICT activity realization -study 2. Results showed that both aims were reached. It is concluded that when severe intellectual disabled people are offered information in an accessible format their autonomy is enhanced.Downloads
