Abstract (EN): Renewable energy is a trending topic due to its importance in today's society especially because of global warming. Because of its importance, this topic should be discussed at schools in an inclusive education environment. Experimental work is a very good activity to provide students effective conceptual discussions, but it is necessary to improve the teaching-learning process for an inclusive education paradigm. In this paper we propose a low-cost experimental activity using Arduino that allows regular students and blind students to explore together and understand features and properties about solar energy and a photovoltaic panel, such as how the electric power generated by the photocell depends on the angle of incidence of solar light and the load resistance of the circuit. © 2021 IOP Publishing Ltd.
