Resumo(s)
This study explores the multifaceted role of artificial intelligence (AI) in inclusive education, focusing on identifying global research trends, thematic structures, and emerging technological challenges. As AI tools and generative algorithms become increasingly embedded within contemporary educational contexts, a comprehensive understanding of their implications for classroom inclusion, accessibility, and systemic equity has become essential for sustainable development. The study adopts a rigorous bibliometric research design, analyzing 426 peer-reviewed documents indexed in the Scopus database to systematically map the field's intellectual and conceptual architecture over time. Utilizing VOSviewer for advanced keyword co-occurrence and network density visualization analysis, the research delineates five dominant thematic clusters: AI computational frameworks, adaptive pedagogical practices, learner diversity in special education, system accessibility and digital equity, and educational technology infrastructure. The empirical findings reveal a significant, accelerated convergence between technological innovation and inclusive pedagogy, specifically within personalized learning paradigms and assistive interface design. However, the synthesized literature concurrently underscores severe ethical anxieties, notably algorithmic bias, data privacy vulnerabilities, and the reinforcement of the digital divide. The study contributes to academic literature by providing a theoretically grounded, structured mapping of current scholarship and establishing distinct future research directions. It offers critical, evidence-based insights for educators and policymakers aiming to responsibly leverage AI to foster truly equitable, responsive, and transformative learning environments.
