Inclusive education is an approach that aims to promote equal opportunities and participation in education for all students, regardless of their abilities or disabilities. One of the ways this can be achieved is through the use of technology. As technology continues to advance, it has become increasingly important in enhancing inclusive education practices. This research paper will review the current practices of technology in inclusive education and explore future directions for its implementation. The paper will focus on the role of technology in enhancing inclusive education and its impact on students, teachers, and the overall learning environment. By examining the current practices and future directions of technology in inclusive education, this paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discussion on how technology can be leveraged to promote inclusivity and equality in education.
全纳教育是一种旨在促进所有学生,无论其能力或残疾如何,都享有平等机会和参与教育的方法。实现这一目标的方法之一就是利用技术。随着技术的不断进步,它在加强全纳教育实践中的作用也日益重要。本研究论文将回顾技术在全纳教育中的当前实践,并探讨技术实施的未来方向。论文将重点探讨技术在加强全纳教育中的作用及其对学生、教师和整个学习环境的影响。通过研究技术在全纳教育中的当前实践和未来发展方向,本文旨在为正在进行的关于如何利用技术促进教育的全纳性和平等性的讨论做出贡献。

The use of technology in education has the potential to revolutionize the way educators approach inclusive education. Assistive technology can help students with special educational needs (SEN) or language difficulties feel accepted and fulfilled in the classroom, while also promoting equal opportunities and enhancing the overall educational journey for all students [1][2][3]. However, teacher training is a fundamental challenge for inclusion and the use of digital technologies in schools. Educators need to be offered professional development and training programs to enhance their knowledge and skills in utilizing assistive technology effectively in the classroom [1][2]. Ongoing research and development is also required to improve existing assistive technologies and create new solutions [1]. Open-use, accessible technology can assist learners with disabilities, and the goal is to nurture a more inclusive educational experience [4]. The GEM Report highlights the importance of making educational technology widely available to ensure equitable access to learning opportunities for all learners, including those who are not already privileged [4]. However, it is important to note that technology cannot replace the human connection that impacts education and learning. Digital technologies must support and enhance teacher-led education, enabling higher flexibility and differentiation in educational methodologies while still ensuring that the teacher remains central to the learning process [4][3].
技术在教育中的应用有可能彻底改变教育工作者开展全纳教育的方式。辅助技术可以帮助有特殊教育需求(SEN)或语言障碍的学生在课堂上感到被接纳和充实,同时还能促进机会均等,改善所有学生的整体教育历程[1][2][3]。然而,教师培训是实现全纳教育和在学校使用数字技术的一个基本挑战。需要为教育工作者提供专业发展和培训计划,以提高他们在课堂上有效利用辅助技术的知识和技能[1][2]。此外,还需要不断进行研究和开发,以改进现有的辅助技术并创造新的解决方案[1]。开放使用、无障碍的技术可以帮助残疾学习者,其目标是培养更具包容性的教育体验[4]。全球教育指标报告》强调了广泛提供教育技术的重要性,以确保所有学习者,包括那些尚未享有特权的学习者,都能公平地获得学习机会[4]。然而,必须指出的是,技术无法取代影响教育和学习的人与人之间的联系。数字技术必须支持和加强以教师为主导的教育,使教育方法具有更高的灵活性和差异化,同时确保教师仍然是学习过程的核心[4][3]。
The impact of technology in inclusive education is a topic of great interest among educators, researchers, and policymakers. The findings of this research paper suggest that the use of digital technologies has the potential to transform the way teachers approach inclusive education. However, the success of such an approach is contingent upon teacher training and support. Digital technologies in education should be designed to enhance teacher-led education, providing flexibility and differentiation while ensuring that the teacher remains central to the learning process. This is particularly important in inclusive education, where teachers must be equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to meet the diverse needs of all learners. It is important to acknowledge that the use of technology in education is not a panacea; there are potential limitations and biases that must be addressed. Future research should focus on the development of effective teacher training programs that incorporate the use of digital technologies in inclusive education. The ultimate goal is to promote
技术对全纳教育的影响是教育工作者、研究人员和政策制定者极为关注的话题。本文的研究结果表明,数字技术的使用有可能改变教师开展全纳教育的方式。然而,这种方法的成功取决于教师的培训和支持。数字技术在教育中的应用应旨在加强以教师为主导的教育,提供灵活性和差异化,同时确保教师仍然是学习过程的核心。这一点在全纳教育中尤为重要,因为教师必须掌握必要的技能和知识,以满足所有学习者的不同需求。必须承认,技术在教育中的应用并不是万能的;有一些潜在的局限性和偏见必须加以解决。未来的研究应侧重于开发有效的教师培训计划,将数字技术的使用纳入全纳教育。最终目标是促进
