Abstract
The demand to support special educative needs has considerably risen recently, highlighting the longing of customized learning paths. According to the "Policy guidelines on inclusion in education" (UNESCO 2009, Paris), "the concept of inclusion focuses on the learning environments and it involves changes and modifications in content, approaches, structures and strategies, with a common vision that covers all children of the appropriate age range and a conviction that it is the responsibility of the regular system to educate all children". The present paper presents a contribution along these lines that follows an inclusive edutainment (educational entertainment) paradigm to create a smart learning environment where students are provided with multi-modal and multi-sensory learning experiences in order to learn everywhere in a more entertaining fashion.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
