The use of Visual Auditory Simulation Technique (VASTECH)

Learning requires all learners to pay attention to what they are learning. It is therefore particularly important for learners to be on-task whenever learning tasks are performed (Ormrod, 2005). Young children with inattention problems will find difficulty in concentrating on a task, do not finish w...

description Learning requires all learners to pay attention to what they are learning. It is therefore particularly important for learners to be on-task whenever learning tasks are performed (Ormrod, 2005). Young children with inattention problems will find difficulty in concentrating on a task, do not finish what they start, do not listen and always lose things (Lerner, 2003).Children with special needs, are especially prone to lack of attention span and thus are found to be off-task at most time during the process of learning.
