Tablets for inclusive teaching and learning in a mainstream setting - a need analysis
Journal Title: International Journal of Pedagogy, Innovation and New Technologies - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
The article presents the results of international research on the use of mobile technologies as a support in the process of educating students with special educational needs. A team of researchers from five European countries conducted a survey among teachers using tablets while working with students with disabilities. Answers from the respondents reveal the image of educators who seek on their own, without any systemic support, opportunities to strengthen the educational opportunities of their pupils. The research results indicate that systemic organizational, methodical and financial solutions should be developed to facilitate the introduction of mobile devices for special and inclusive education.<br/><br/>
