The integration of students with disabilities is still problematic. Many teachers admit that they do not know how to deal with children with hearing difficulties. However, there are various ways to integrate them, even in non-specialized classes.
The art of the teacher in the face of algorithms
Adaptive platforms promise to automatically adjust the difficulty "to measure" each learner, thanks to data. But calibrating a challenge is more than just optimizing indicators. The algorithm individualizes based on traces; the pedagogue contextualizes based on a human, relational and symbolic situation. The challenge is not to pit human against machine, but to preserve pedagogical discernment in the face of algorithmic optimization.
The contribution of narrative practices to pedagogy
The narrative approach is an extraordinary lever for development. This approach enables us to dissociate the person who is supposedly the bearer of a problem from the situation he or she is experiencing. By shifting the focus on interactions, we don't limit the individual to being just a problem.
