Abstract:


The purpose for this study is to be able to deliver messages and life tips for special needs students in an easy way. For that, we used a web 2.0 visual tool “EdPuzzle” to show a video about bullying, having in it some questions to know if the message is delivered and understood by these students. The outcome of the study was positive and showed that the special needs students were motivated and understood the meaning of bullying from the video they saw. In addition, the students felt more comfortable and understood the lesson without asking the teacher.
