dc.description.abstract | The awareness and inclusion of school children with intellectual and developmental disabilities are garnering growing attention in educational research. Schools are increasingly focused on creating inclusive environments, and programs aimed at improving students’ attitudes toward peers with disabilities are key to this effort. This article reviews studies on the impact of these programs on primary and secondary education. A systematic search of the WOS, Scopus, PubMed, and ERIC databases was conducted using the PRISMA statement. This yielded nine relevant articles published either in Spanish or English. This review found that awareness programs had a generally positive effect on students’ perceptions of their peers with disabilities. However, the awareness of intellectual and developmental disabilities remained lower than that of physical, visual, or hearing disabilities. The most effective strategies involved direct interaction and information sharing, with simulation techniques also having positive outcomes. Despite some successful results, challenges remain, particularly involving the need to engage educational staff and ensure the long-term sustainability of these programs within the curriculum. Future research should investigate the long-term impact of these interventions and their effectiveness across different educational settings | en |
