Abstract: Dyslexia, also known as a reading disability, is a disorder characterized by difficulties in learning to read despite access to conventional instruction, adequate intelligence, and sociocultural opportunities. This paper explores the potential benefits of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in supporting students with dyslexia. A brief overview of key studies highlights how ICT can be utilized to enhance the learning experience of students with specific learning disabilities, particularly dyslexia. The research aims to identify the preferred learning styles of dyslexic students in virtual learning environments and expand current research on adaptive learning systems. By taking into account the cognitive capacities and learning preferences of dyslexic users, the study seeks to contribute to the development of more effective assistive technologies and adaptive learning models for students with dyslexia. Dyslexic learners often face challenges that extend beyond traditional classroom settings, and integrating assistive technology through ICT can help address these challenges. By incorporating the Cognitive Trait Model and adaptive learning techniques, educators can tailor virtual learning environments to the unique cognitive needs of dyslexic students. Such approaches not only enhance engagement but also improve overall learning outcomes by offering personalized support that aligns with individual
