Research involving the schooling process of the person with Intellectual Disability (ID) is necessary, since, on average, 45.6% of people with ID are illiterate in Brazil. Before this scenario, it is essential to think about the literacy process of these students, specifically possibilities that help effective pedagogical practices. This paper aimed to analyze the effectiveness of the Computerized Literacy Program with a Phonovisuoarticulatory approach in three students with ID, 12 and 13 years old, illiterate who attended a special school. Therefore, the study was divided into four stages: I- Application of reading and writing assessment; II- Application of the experimental procedure, after assessment and tests, using the Multiple Baseline design - the intervention was performed individually in sessions of approximately 50 minutes, three times a week for four months, and the information was registered on the Record Sheet; III- Reapplication of the reading and writing assessment; IV- Application of the Social Validity Questionnaire. The data were analyzed considering aspects such as the performance of the participants, monitoring of the reading and writing process and the number of correct answers in the intervention stages. The results showed that all participants increased the correct responses after the introduction of the intervention with the program when the activities of vowels and consonants were presented, with all intervention sessions being above the baseline. The Social Validity Questionnaire demonstrated the perception of the teacher and the pedagogical coordinator about the intervention, reporting that they were able to observe the participants' progress regarding the literacy process.
