Abstract

Inclusion is configured as an action aimed at the realization of inclusive values which are guides and an impetus for the action itself. Many studies have shown that intrinsic motivation plays an important role in the adoption of technology in teaching and is essential for action aimed at valuing differences. Based on these considerations, the aim of the contribution is to trace the theoretical framework of a research project aimed at investigating the role of values and motivation of future support teachers in adopting technologies in teaching.

L'inclusione si configura come un'azione rivolta alla realizzazione di valori inclusivi che sono guide e un impulso per l'azione stessa. Molti studi hanno evidenziato che la motivazione intrinseca ha un ruolo importante nell'adozione della tecnologia in didattica ed è fondamentale per un agire teso alla valorizzazione delle differenze. Sulla base di tali considerazioni, l'obiettivo del contributo è quello di tracciare la cornice teorica di un progetto di ricerca volto ad indagare il ruolo dei valori e della motivazione dei futuri docenti di sostegno ad adottare le tecnologie in didattica.
