Tennis tech vs. traditional teaching: which helps kids with intellectual disabilities learn better?
NCT ID NCT07577830
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how 30 children aged 12-18 with mild intellectual disabilities learn tennis. One group used real-time pose recognition technology, while the other had standard instructor-led lessons. Over 14 weeks, researchers compared their learning experiences and motor skill development to see which approach worked better.
