Special Education

For a long time, special education was seen as a separate field, a niche for the few, or even an unattainable challenge for many. This volume of the Pedagogy series aims to change that perspective. We believe that inclusion is not just a moral or social obligation, but an opportunity to innovate, grow, and build a business with a profound purpose. Special education is the field where pedagogy finds its greatest power: to transform lives and build a more just and accessible society.

This book is a guide for anyone who wants to understand special education not just as a topic of study, but as a driver of entrepreneurship and innovation. Whether you're a teacher seeking to adapt your teaching practices, a student looking to delve deeper into a growing market niche, or an entrepreneur dreaming of creating a product or service with real impact, this book is for you.

Let’s explore the foundations of inclusive education, demystify the main learning differences and show how educational psychology can be your greatest ally. You'll learn how to use new technologies in education to create solutions that generate value for students, families, and schools. We'll analyze opportunities in different contexts, from early childhood education to high school and college.
