description Due to the lack of studies on developing life skills of children with intellectual disability in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), this mixed-methods study examined the effect of a multimedia program on the development four life-skills (self-care, health-care, avoiding environmental dangers and thinking skills) among children with intellectual disability in a centre for special education needs in AL-Bahah region in KSA. This study also examined perception of six teachers in the centre about the effectiveness of the multimedia program which was employed for one semester.

At the end of the intervention, the respondents’ performance in the life-care skills were assessed using four observation cards; one for each skill. In addition, six teachers were interviewed regarding their perceptions of the effectiveness of the multimedia program.
