Questo studio esplora come gli insegnanti mediano e adattano un'attività con un giocattolo di coding in un contesto di formazione e cura dell'infanzia per garantire l'inclusione di tutti i bambini, utilizzando un approccio di ricerca inclusiva. Le attività di coding non solo sviluppano competenze fondamentali in informatica, ma potenziano anche il pensiero critico e computazionale dei bambini. Le ricerche evidenziano l'importanza di promuovere la collaborazione e la risoluzione dei problemi tra i bambini della scuola dell'infanzia attraverso l'uso di strumenti di coding. Le metodologie di ricerca inclusiva hanno dimostrato la loro efficacia nel migliorare le pratiche educative per tutti i bambini, indipendentemente dalle differenze neuroevolutive. Questo studio di caso ha coinvolto due (2) insegnanti e otto (8) bambini di 5 anni, di cui due con disabilità dello sviluppo, in un'attività di problem solving con un robot di coding senza schermo. I dati ottenuti dagli appunti di campo degli insegnanti si concentrano su come costoro hanno mediato il coinvolgimento e la cooperazione dei bambini. L'analisi tematica ha identificato tre temi principali: pianificazione dell'insegnante, mediazione dell'insegnante e il ruolo dell'artefatto. La discussione riflette anche sul legame con la teoria dell'apprendimento mediato di Feuerstein e sul valore della ricerca inclusiva nel favorire il coinvolgimento di tutti i bambini.
