FREE! Live Panel Discussion – EdTech for Inclusion: Empowering Every Learner Through Technology – GESS Dubai 2025

In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), inclusive education is a legal mandate aimed at providing equitable learning opportunities for all students, regardless of their abilities or backgrounds.
Educational technology (EdTech) can be a pivotal tool in achieving this inclusivity, offering innovative solutions that cater to diverse learning needs.
This panel discussion will explore how EdTech is transforming classrooms, enhancing accessibility, and fostering an inclusive environment where every learner can thrive.
Hear from experienced professionals at the cutting edge of inclusion in the region, as they share practical approaches, success stories, and discuss the future of EdTech.
π Louise Dawson, Owner, Founder, and Inclusion Specialist
Some of the topics we aim to cover include:
- How do you ensure consistency in inclusive practice while still allowing for cultural and contextual flexibility across such diverse environments?
- What does true inclusion look like in a technology-enhanced school?
- How can EdTech assist with safeguarding and wellbeing, as well as tools for learning like text to speech?
- What about “low tech”, like magnifying glasses, timers, interactive boards?
- What are the biggest barriers to teachers embracing educational technology and how can leadership teams and inclusion departments help overcome that hesitation?
- How can schools strike a balance between using technology to gather and analyse student data, and protecting the wellbeing, dignity, and privacy of those students, especially those with special educational needs?
- What technology have you seen implemented that hasΒ showΒ evidence based results?
- If you could reimagine inclusion and technology integration five years from now, what would you want every teacher and student to be able to do that they canβt do today?
