Summary: | Information and communication
technology (ICT) tools can have a catalytic effect in
advancing both educational access and learning outcomes for
children with disabilities. Despite tremendous potential, a
gap exists between technology advancements and their
large-scale application in educating children with
disabilities in low- and middle-income countries. This
landscape review of ICTs for disability inclusive education
by the Inclusive Education Initiative seeks to understand
the current status and trends in the practice of educational
technology (EdTech) and the use of ICT in improving the
educational participation and outcomes of children with
disabilities. The review explores what factors enable or
restrict this improvement within the wider EdTech ecosystem. |
