Abstract

In recent years, significant transformations have been taking place in the preschool education system, caused by changes in the scientific, methodological and material base of education and upbringing of children. One of the important conditions for updating is the use of new information technologies, primarily computer technologies. This allows, on the one hand, to increase the effectiveness of the educational process, on the other hand, to a greater extent to apply an individual approach in the process of teaching and upbringing of both normally developing children and children with various developmental disabilities, including speech.

The article examines the actual problem of realizing the pedagogical potential of using assistive technology devices, such as multimedia correction tools, in the inclusive education of preschool children with severe speech pathologies. The article analyzes domestic and foreign experience of using multimedia technologies in correctional practice. A study was carried out using various available multimedia tools for speech correction; both positive and negative aspects were identified. Based on the results obtained, the author’s method was proposed in the form of a software and hardware complex with biofeedback, which can be effectively used in institutions implementing inclusive education.
