The role of technologies for strengthening learning

Pedagogical research today is increasingly called to support the idea of inclusive education through appropriate objectives, resources and practices to the specific characteristics of each student. Technologies form part of this planning, with their role of resources able to promote education and participation of disabled students within the training and learning context. Literature offers several ideas for thought about the impact of technologies on the inclusive learning activities, but it must be explored more thoroughly the so-called ”inclusive practices” to understand how technologies could be able to support such processes. This paper proceeding from this background and provides the results of a study starting with the examination of the role that each teacher has within inclusive process. Analysis performed in a secondary school with a high number of students with disabilities has revealed certain critical elements which the evaluation has led to draw up an action plan that required the realization of a workshop. It involved 14 teachers and 8 students with physical and cognitive impairment. During the workshop participants have worked on the construction of some educational activities and on the customization of technologies at their disposal. The workshop has been performed in the knowledge that training appears to be with more active participation when traders and students are involved by active methods.
