The results suggest a significant impact on the academic progress of the experiment group related to the use of the tools, the factor analysis highlights the existence of a common underlying factor that influences performance and their ability to learn compared to the use of the tools, identifying a variation in performance according to the specific needs and abilities of each student, which highlights the importance of inclusive education with adaptive tools that respond to the needs and abilities to increase educational quality.
