MEMOIRS: MOBILE APPLICATION TO SUPPORT TASK AND ROUTINE MANAGEMENT FOR CHILDREN WITH ADHD

Abstract

This article presents the conceptual proposal for the MEMOIRS app, a mobile tool designed to support task and routine management for children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The study aimed to propose a digital solution that assists in organizing daily activities, fostering autonomy, and boosting child engagement through visual and auditory features as well as gamification strategies. The methodology employed is qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive in nature, grounded in a literature review and document analysis regarding ADHD, educational technologies, assistive technology, and gamification. Key results indicate that the app’s proposal includes features such as task planning, personalized reminders, a reward system, and monitoring by guardians, suggesting potential to facilitate routine organization and stimulate executive skills in children. The study concludes that the planned use of digital technologies can significantly contribute to inclusive educational practices by supporting the specific needs of children with ADHD and expanding opportunities for learning, participation, and autonomy.
