Introduction: Children with congenital hypothyroidism face challenges in learning academic skills, especially mathematics, due to the impact of this disease on cognitive development and mental performance. Digital educational technologies, may help improve these children's learning. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of the Aria Electronic Wallet educational program on the mathematical skills of children with congenital hypothyroidism. Materials and Method: The study used a quasi-experimental, pretest-posttest design with a control group. The study population consisted of all 10-12-year-old children with congenital hypothyroidism referred to the Endocrine and Metabolism Research Center of Isfahan University of Medical Sciences; of these, 32 were selected by convenience sampling and randomly assigned to two groups, control and experimental (16 people in each group). The data collection tool was the standard KeyMath-3 Skills Questionnaire. The experimental group underwent 8 sessions 90-minute training with the Aria Electronic Wallet program. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS version 26 with an analysis of covariance. Results: Training with the Aria Electronic Wallet significantly improved mathematical skills and its subscales: mathematical concepts (25.4%), mathematical application (33.7%), and mathematical operations (13.7%) (p≤0.05). Conclusion: These results indicate that the use of interactive educational technologies can help improve the mathematical skills of children with congenital hypothyroidism.
