Sport & technology to support the development of inclusive didactics

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to introduce the importance of the sport-technology pair to support the possibility to generate the psycho-physical, inclusive and athletic benefits for non-disabled and, especially, disabled athletes.In the school context, the technological innovations represent an excellent tool to develop inclusive education policies, and it is believed that they can be developed in the sports context too. Sport has always carried an important and inclusive value and, through an appropriate and efficient management of the technological potential available, it is possible to break down further barriers. In this regard, a research analysis on some athletes of an amateur football club composed of 4 subjects with disabilities was carried out to assess the differences in terms of final performance, a training strategy carried out through a technological support (Powersprint), and a traditional one.
