ABSTRACT
Children with intellectual deficiencies have diverse limitations, particularly in understanding and expressing a certain object verbally in communication. To resolve these limitations, this paper is oriented to improve their understanding using speech related to the real object. Therefore, we propose a model of the instructional thematic game based on a voice Kinect sensor to detect their speech. This model has an attribute that represents a certain theme for each part of the game topic and a strong relationship to the curricula in improving the learning process at school. It gives them a rule to learn diverse things from a single topic of a real subject by associating it with diverse viewpoints from the abstract subject. Based on the expert and teacher questionnaires to the 13 people involved, most of them answered that such a model would support the children in getting better results in their understanding of the object and in improving their articulation.
