Digital Transformation and Inclusive Education: The Impact and Future of Education 4.0 Technologies
Abstract
This paper discussed issues of inclusion in Education 4.0: the use of Education 4.0 technologies in inclusive education, opportunities provided by technologies, and problems related to these technologies. While Education 4.0 represents a student-centered, flexible mode of learning due to the embedding of digital technologies in education, inclusive education aims to ensure equal opportunities of access and participation in educational processes for all students. This article also addresses, briefly, how technologies like AR, VR, AI, IoT, and Big Data Analytics can be used to enhance interactivity in educational processes by improving student involvement and motivation.
