| Descripción: | This is a literature review that analyzes the important role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) in inclusive education and how it functions as support tools for underprivileged and vulnerable population groups. Conceptual approaches of social inclusion and inclusive education proposed by local, national and international organizations are initially summarized. Such approaches are used to promote public policies for the overall use of these resources to serve the underprivileged. Teacher education, reduction of the digital gap and design of educational surroundings are key elements that trigger or accelerate educational inclusion. The methodology for this study consisted of a review of 113 articles published during the last decade that specifically cover inclusive education and ICTs. A selection of approximately half of inclusive educational policies was also analyzed to enrich this article. The conclusions drawn emphasize that new social cultural factors require policies that will help attain equality and justice, a pending item that must be addressed. |
