Gaps in the inclusion of university students with sensory disabilities in higher education: Systematic review of the literature
Keywords:
inclusive education; gaps in inclusion; sensory impairment; higher educationAbstract
To identify relevant reviews on the gaps in Inclusive Education (IE) of college students with sensory impairment, a comprehensive and systematic search was conducted in September 2022, using the following electronic databases: Education Resource Information Center (ERIC), Springer, and Web of Science (WoS). The descriptors used were: "inclusive education", "gaps", "sensory disability" and "special educational needs" combined with "Higher Education" using the Boolean AND operator. The search was restricted to peer-reviewed journals and academic journals, to ensure a minimum quality standard of the included article. The eligibility criteria allowed refining the search, yielding 343 articles of which 154 remained after eliminating duplicates and discriminating by title and abstract reading. Finally, 9 primary studies were included to analyze in the present investigation. As main gaps in the inclusion of university students with sensory disabilities, it was identified that the problem of how to prepare educators to work more effectively in inclusive environments has not yet been resolved; assistive technologies and equipment are expensive and difficult to acquire; there is no natural disposition to celebrate diversity and promote cohesion within the university itself.
