Abstract

This study aims to investigate the application of digital media to help blind students adjusting their learning. Using a case study that involved students and language teachers at a special school for the blind students in Yogyakarta, the study specifically examines the role of digital media in learning Indonesian language (Bahasa Indonesia) from the perspectives of the students and teachers. The findings showed that digital media plays a significant role in many ways, such as providing activities, like role playing in learning Indonesian using websites, android applications and electronic books. The digital media in learning Indonesian is also explored to help students in reading and listening. The use of digital media by teachers is applied before learning, during learning, and during assessment or evaluation of learning.
