Keywords:
digital technologies, inclusive education, assistive technology, accessibility, adaptive learning, universal design for learning, equity.Abstract
Inclusive education, which strives to provide equitable learning opportunities for all students, regardless of their physical, cognitive, or socio-economic challenges, has seen significant advancements due to the integration of digital technologies. This article explores the role of digital technologies in enhancing inclusive education by promoting accessibility, engagement, and individualized learning experiences. It discusses the various tools and approaches, including assistive technologies, adaptive learning systems, and universal design for learning (UDL), that have been employed to address the diverse needs of learners. Additionally, it analyzes the challenges and potential barriers to effective implementation, and suggests future directions for the evolution of digital tools in fostering truly inclusive educational environments.
