The article addresses the issues related to digitalization in education and in this context – using of its achievements in the inclusive education.The authors analyze the implementation of digital technologies in the educational system, the benefits and risks of digitalization. The most important advantage of digitalization is its applicability in the system of inclusive education. The common ground between the inclusive approach and the use of digital technologies in the education of people with disabilities is studied. Digitalization in the modern world also influences on the civic engagement. In addition, digital citizenship makes it possible to develop professional competencies, ethical standards of culture among the young generation, in particular, among people with disabilities.In this article, the authors study the development of psychological, pedagogical, and communicative competencies of pedagogues required in inclusive education. The approaches to the organization of advanced training for teachers in professional educational institutions are shown.Digital educational technologies have undoubted benefits. If these technologies are used correctly in educational activities, they can help pedagogues to exempt from routine work, and to facilitate the fulfillment of educational tasks for children with disabilities. In order to do this, the entire process of digitalization and the use of artificial intelligence must be mastered. The main thing is to remember that “person” should be in the center of attention during the process of digitalization of socio-political processes.

“Science Dissemination for the Disabled" is a noteworthy topic which is still sparse. In order to increase interest in the study of science and on access to research without exclusion emphasis needs to be paid towards innovation within a scientific environment. We describe some issues on the use of open digital technologies available at Scientific Fablabs to support education and scientific know-how for all. Our hope is to encourage further consideration by the scientific community and present strategies that promote the full inclusion of people with disabilities in society.

The article reflects the current problems of society, in the direction of using digital technologies. The authors pay special attention to the possibilities of attracting digital technologies in the process of levelling financial and socio-economic exclusion among people with disabilities. The authors analysed modern methods of obtaining information when a person does not just receive educational services, but programs his brain to further produce it in a particular area. The authors came to the conclusion that the prevailing global goal of hedonism, with the inability to build images of the future, leads to the fact that society becomes less tolerant and counts on quick and easy success. Therefore, the rules of digital hygiene should become the legislative norm of the life of a modern person.

This chapter explores digital technologies and their use in social applications for blind people. The digitization, creation, and indexing of digital resources aimed at using these resources for the needs of visually impaired people are presented. Standards for digitization, metadata, digital media storage, and media resources are presented. Internet technologies, semantic networks, and ontologies are of particular importance and can be used for blind learners. 3D technologies and 3D models are particularly suitable tools and give new opportunities for blind people. Website standards and website accessibility standards, as well as accessibility technologies for people with disabilities, are a means and a way of socializing. Both digital resources and robots are considered inaccessible to people with visual limitations. They are widespread on a global scale, but their use is rather limited in people with disabilities and in their special education. Particular attention is paid to the interdisciplinary use of digital technologies and social robots as training tools.

Language Pathology

In countries other than the United States, the study and practice of speech-language pathology is little known or nonexistent. Recognition of professionals in the field is minimal. Speech-language pathologists in countries where speech-language pathology is a widely recognized and respected profession often seek to share their expertise in places where little support is available for individuals with communication disorders. The Peace Corps offers a unique, long-term volunteer opportunity to people with a variety of backgrounds, including speech-language pathologists. Though Peace Corps programs do not specifically focus on speech-language pathology, many are easily adapted to the profession because they support populations of people with disabilities. This article describes how the needs of local children with communication disorders are readily addressed by a Special Education Peace Corps volunteer.
