Education in the 21st century is called upon to prepare students with disabilities to enter a high-consciousness society where people can learn, think and react fast. The current review paper aims at investigating the role of fast learning in special education. We trace the essential indicators of speed learning with a special focus on those factors that are most relevant to learning disabilities. Afterward, we present evidence-based training techniques and strategies that rapidly rewire the brain and speed up learning. In addition, we examine the role of ICTs as essential training tools in speed learning. Finally, we discuss the role of metacognition in training fast and conscious learners. The results of this review showed that speed learning training techniques improve all those factors that accelerate learning such as spatial attention, visual span, processing speed, speed reaction, executive functions, metacognition, and consciousness. Most important, fast learning strategies meliorate control processes and spatial intelligence which is extremely fast and powerful. Metacognition provides learners with all those meta-abilites needed to enter a state of peak performance. This study also points to the option of including speed training strategies in schools to create inclusive learning environments and help students with or without disabilities to transcend their limitations and become conscious and high-capacity learners.

Introduction Experts suggest that if one wants to learn faster, he/she has to think with a beginner's mind or as a child. Indeed, a child's brain can master anything faster. Research has already revealed that children have the potential to learn extremely fast even faster than adults. For instance, children can learn causal relationships more quickly than adults and make far-reaching causal inferences from what they observe. They also are more likely than adults to generalize 230
