This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2023 Home Science Question Paper (13-Dec-2023) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

A, C, D only

ICT (Information and Communication Technology) tools in Special Needs Education are assistive devices/software specifically designed to help learners with disabilities access learning.
Braille is a tactile writing and reading system used by learners with visual impairment, along with related Braille devices/displays, making it a genuine assistive ICT tool.
Head wands are devices attached to the head that allow learners with limited or no use of their hands to type on a keyboard or point at objects/screens, making them assistive ICT tools for learners with motor impairments.
Text magnifier is software or hardware that enlarges on-screen or printed text for learners with low vision, making it an assistive ICT tool as well.
Flash discs (USB storage drives) are generic data-storage devices used by all learners and are not tools designed specifically for special needs.
Popplet is a general-purpose mind-mapping/concept-mapping application used broadly across classrooms, not an assistive technology exclusive to special needs education.
Hence, the correct combination is Braille, Head wands, and Text magnifier only (A, C, D).
