Previous studies show that assistive technology has a significant impact on helping students with disabilities achieve their academic goals. Assistive technology is hardware, devices and software equipment that help students with disabilities by giving them the same access to perform certain tasks that would otherwise have been challenging. Selecting an appropriate AT tool for a student requires parents, educators, and other professionals take a comprehensive view, carefully analyzing the interaction between the student, the technology, the tasks to be performed, and the settings where it will be used. Therefore, this study was conducted in order to confirm the effective use of assistive technology such as Thai Word Search. The results reflected an improvement in student achievement and appeared to make a greater contribution toward student in this study when using assistive technology to support writing.
