This paper presents a systematic literature review on collab-orative technologies for children with special needs in ACMDigital Library. The aim of the review is to (1) reveal the cur-rent state of the art, (2) identify the types of technologies and contexts of use, the demographics and special needs of the tar-get group, and the methodological approaches and theoretical groundings, and (3) define a future research agenda. The results of the systematic literature review show that collaborative technologies for children with special needs are increasingly gaining attention, mostly involve tangible and/or embodied interaction, and are often developed for use in the classroom.The target group that is most represented are boys between 6 to 12 years with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The results further show a wide range of evaluation criteria for measuring collaboration, an interchanging use of theoretical concepts and a lack of definitions for the concept collaboration, and a need for more demographically diverse studies.
