ABSTRACT
Children with intellectual disabilities (ID) can benefit greatly from technologies, when the technologies fit with their motivations and interaction needs. This paper investigates literature on how families of children with ID become aware of and adopt technologies, in order to identify the current practices and opportunities for better support for families. The analysis and findings point to the difficulties faced and the need for creating a sustainable web-based community that can effectively disseminate and share knowledge about how technologies are used and what technologies are needed. A video-based sharing community is proposed and the form that this community might take is then discussed.
