Digital technologies have brought about a profound transformation in the landscape of teaching and learning models, offering substantial benefits to teachers and students. Educational resources can assist in addressing potential challenges or difficulties that may arise during one’s academic journey. Learning disorders are difficulties retaining, acquiring, or utilizing skills and information. Such deficits in attention, memory, and reasoning ultimately impact academic performance. This dysfunction impedes the transmission and processing of information within the brain yet does not preclude learning when appropriate pedagogical techniques are employed. This article aims to present digital resources that can be immediately employed to support teachers’ methodological practices, thereby facilitating the training process of students with learning disorders/difficulties within the scope of Vocational and Technological Education. The research presented here forms part of the master’s degree proposal for the Graduate Program in Professional and Technological Education (PPGEPT-UFSM). The study employs a qualitative approach, utilizing document analysis, bibliography and case studies as its primary methods. We conducted a bibliographic review to develop theoretical assumptions based on the works of Siqueira and Gurgel-Giannetti (2011), Silva and Neto (2008), the DSM-V (2014), and Oliveira (2009), among others. This study presents diverse approaches facilitating more significant interaction between students, content, and teachers, offering practical pedagogical support for educators seeking to diversify their teaching practice.
