Distance education and the development of assistive technologies represent a possibility of balancing the access and participation of people with special educational needs in learning experiences and participation in society. This study is aimed at finding out what is known about distance education mediated by assistive technology based on an analysis of the characteristics of scientific production. Through a review of the literature, the sample content is analyzed, culminating in trends that point towards the autonomy and independence of this people, the need for accommodation and accompaniment in a scenario of permanent technological change, initial training and continuing education of inclusive education teachers, as well as collegiate participation between professionals, community, and family in the design of training courses and technologies for people with special needs. The results reveal limited scientific productivity at all educational levels, with greater use of technologies to assist visual and hearing disabilities. The trends emphasize autonomy, Universal Design for Learning, and the challenges of technological adaptation. Findings are discussed and synthesized with the purpose of informing policy makers, researchers, and school communities.

The focus of this study was to ascertain the extent to which children with special needs have been fully integrated into the inclusive education policy in Abuja, Nigeria vis-a-vis SDG goal 4. The study was built on a blend of social work theories. The methodology adopted for the study was integrative literature review. Literature review revealed that inclusive education has not been fully implemented in Abuja, Nigeria. Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that children faced with learning impediments are at the receiving end in the midst of inclusive education policy in Nigeria. Recommendations have been made to Federal Capital Territory Education Authority, Federal Government of Nigeria to increase funding to inclusive education programme, train teachers in special education amongst others to improve inclusive education policy and ameliorate the plight of children with learning challenges.
