This paper presents an Adaptive Multimedia Interface embedded in an Intelligent Tutorial System (ITS) for intellectual and cognitive handicapped children. There are many educational programs specifically designed for helping students but in general they do not consider the adaptation of the performed tasks to the individual characteristics of each one of the children. The aim of this work is designing a computer-based environment for supporting a teaching strategy where both the pedagogic aspects and the learning goals were adapted according to the particularities of the pupil. The two fundamental problems that are approached in this paper are: designing the interface that is embedded in an Intelligent Tutorial System and implementing an efficient communication of knowledge.
