Assuming the positive impact of Information and Communication Technologies on learning of students with Intellectual and Developmental Difficulties and considering the articulation of the public system and the particular and cooperative system of schooling of these students in Portugal we will seek to guide a research in a comparative perspective according to an empirical approach, framed in the Comparative paradigm.
The contribution of Special Education in the context of teacher education is becoming increasingly essential, especially if we take into account the epistemological wealth deriving from the relationship with numerous related sciences. This contribution aims at comparing the training axes of Italy and Portugal in order to detect common features and future research tracks in a comparative perspective and with an open look at complexity. In particular, the aim is to investigate whether (and how) the inclusive educational dimension of teachers is organized and designed to meet the needs of all pupils, also with reference to the programmatic actions promoted by the 2030 Agenda (ONU, 2015) which sees in the educational axis a real catalyst of development capable of breaking down inequalities and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all. Without forgetting, then, that the teaching profession needs, today more than ever, a sharing, open on an international level, regarding the professional profile traceable in the main and priority competences to be possessed in the increasingly globalized knowledge society.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
