摘要：

Computers have potential to support writing for students with disabilities by easing the physical processes involved in writing, helping to manage planning and revising processes, and supporting social interaction and communication. This article reviews research on the use of computer technologies to help individuals with mild educational disabilities write more effectively. The review considers research on word processing in general and on the use of word processing in teaching revision and in facilitating collaboration; tools that aid with transcription, such as spelling checkers, speech synthesis, word prediction, and speech recognition; and the limited research on hypermedia or multimedia to support writing.
