Software tools for inclusive education at the early education stage

Abstract

The research focuses on analyzing the use of software tools in the field of inclusive education during the initial training stage. Its main objective is to analyze and evaluate the software tools available for  inclusive education in the initial education stage, with the purpose of identifying effective solutions adapted to the specific needs of students. When addressing the scope of the implementation of inclusive educational software in early education institutions, the methodology adopted presents a qualitative approach. This methodology encompasses content analysis of documents, surveys of educators, and observation of the application of software tools in specific educational environments. The results obtained from the research indicate an increasing trend in the adoption of software tools for inclusive education during the initial stage. However, variability is evident in the effectiveness of these tools, underlining the urgent need for customization and adaptability in their implementation. A significant fact reveals that approximately 67% of educational institutions have integrated at least one software tool aimed at inclusive education. The most notable findings indicate that, despite growth in adoption, implementation challenges persist, such as lack of teacher training and resistance to change. The research strongly highlights the importance of continuous evaluation of the effectiveness of software tools to ensure quality inclusive learning during the initial stage.
