Abstract
Attention to individuals with special needs is a necessary requirement and a priority that reflects the progress of nations and societies. The neglect of this group is considered a form of cultural and civilisational regression and a threat to social welfare, contributing to the waste of material and human resources. In recent years, with the evolution of humanitarian thinking and the pursuit of equal opportunities, efforts to rehabilitate and care for people with special needs have intensified, enabling them to live happily according to their abilities and potential.
The field of care and rehabilitation for this group has received considerable academic attention, both in terms of practical studies and technological advances. This is due to the growing social awareness that people with special needs have the right to live like other members of society and need specialised educational programmes and qualified teachers to develop their life, educational and vocational skills. Therefore, the current research aims to highlight the role of academic rehabilitation (special education) in stimulating the learning motivation of individuals with special needs.
