Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping educational paradigms by fostering a significant transformation rooted in personalization, accessibility, and inclusion. This contribution, grounded in a special education pedagogy perspective, explores both the potential and criticalities of AI in educational contexts. It introduces a functional tripartition of AI as tool, mediator, and environment—an epistemological framework that supports the design of universal, inclusive educational ecosystems. Within this perspective, the crucial role of AI literacy for both teachers and learners is emphasised, high‐lighting the importance of developing competencies that transcend technical skills and are instead rooted in critical and ethical awareness. These aspects pose significant challenges for the integration of AI in education but, if addressed with a conscious and reflective approach, they can unlock the innovative and inclusive potential of AI, further qualify the role of the teacher, and enhance pedagogical and didactic design.
L’intelligenza artificiale (IA) sta ridefinendo i paradigmi educativi, favorendo una trasformazione profonda che integra personalizzazione, accessibilità e inclusione. Questo contributo, adottando una prospettiva pedagogico‐speciale, analizza le potenzialità e le criticità dell’IA nei contesti formativi, proponendo una tripartizione funzionale della tecnologia quale strumento, mediatore e ambiente. La tripartizione costituisce un framework epistemologico di riferimento per la progettazione di ecosistemi didattico‐educativi universali. In questa prospettiva, si evidenzia il ruolo cruciale dell’alfabetizzazione all’IA (AI Literacy) per docenti e studenti, sottolineando la necessità di acquisire competenze che vadano oltre la dimensione tecnica, radicandosi in una consapevolezza critica ed etica. Quest’ultimo aspetto pone sfide significative per l’integrazione dell’IA nell’educazione, che, se affrontate e agite con un approccio consapevole, ne evidenziano le potenzialità innovative e inclusive, qualificano ulteriormente il ruolo del docente e valorizzano la progettazione pedagogico‐didattica.

Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping educational paradigms by fostering a significant transformation rooted in personalization, accessibility, and inclusion. This contribution, grounded in a special education pedagogy perspective, explores both the potential and criticalities of AI in educational contexts. It introduces a functional tripartition of AI as tool, mediator, and environment—an epistemological framework that supports the design of universal, inclusive educational ecosystems. Within this perspective, the crucial role of AI literacy for both teachers and learners is emphasised, high‐lighting the importance of developing competencies that transcend technical skills and are instead rooted in critical and ethical awareness. These aspects pose significant challenges for the integration of AI in education but, if addressed with a conscious and reflective approach, they can unlock the innovative and inclusive potential of AI, further qualify the role of the teacher, and enhance pedagogical and didactic design.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
