This research presents a novel conceptual framework for inclusive education by integrating Internet of Things (IoT)-driven real-time environmental and behavioral monitoring with adaptive teaching strategies. Unlike traditional methods, our model leverages sensor-based data collection to analyze classroom conditions, teacher mobility, and student interactions, enabling dynamic adjustments that aim to enhance engagement and inclusivity. While the framework is theoretical and has not yet undergone experimental validation, we discuss how optimizing spatial configurations, voice dynamics, and movement patterns could support student participation, particularly for learners with diverse needs. Pilot implementations and empirical testing are planned for future research. By merging datadriven insights with educators’ expertise, our approach offers a scalable vision for creating responsive, inclusive learning environments that proactively address barriers to education.

Abstract

This research presents a novel conceptual framework for inclusive education by integrating Internet of Things (IoT)-driven real-time environmental and behavioral monitoring with adaptive teaching strategies. Unlike traditional methods, our model leverages sensor-based data collection to analyze classroom conditions, teacher mobility, and student interactions, enabling dynamic adjustments that aim to enhance engagement and inclusivity. While the framework is theoretical and has not yet undergone experimental validation, we discuss how optimizing spatial configurations, voice dynamics, and movement patterns could support student participation, particularly for learners with diverse needs. Pilot implementations and empirical testing are planned for future research. By merging datadriven insights with educators’ expertise, our approach offers a scalable vision for creating responsive, inclusive learning environments that proactively address barriers to education.
