Early Detection and Intervention of Developmental Dyscalculia Using Serious Game-Based Digital Tools

Posted on by

Numerous studies underscore the critical importance of early detection to enable effective intervention, highlighting the need for individualized, structured, and adaptive approaches. Digital tools, particularly those based on serious games, appear to offer a promising level of personalization. 

Digital solutions based on serious games present a promising avenue for the detection and remediation of mathematical impairments. Their integration with mobile technologies and internet connectivity offers the potential to increase public awareness of learning difficulties such as developmental dyscalculia (DD), leveraging the ubiquity and accessibility of mobile devices. Furthermore, the computational capabilities of modern platforms, combined with immersive technologies—such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR)—and artificial intelligence (AI), enable the development of engaging, adaptive, and personalized interventions. These features can support both reliable screening and individualized remediation pathways tailored to each child’s cognitive profile.
