IRENE GOMEZ MARI

Irene Gómez Mari is a Lecturer at the Universitat de València, affiliated with the Faculty of Teacher Training and the Department of Language and Literature. She is actively involved in educational research, particularly through her participation in the GIEL Research Group in the Teaching of Languages and the INVTEA Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders.

Her research focuses on the didactics of language and literature, with a strong emphasis on inclusive education for students with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). She investigates the knowledge, attitudes, and self-efficacy of educational agents, as well as the social image of ASD projected by media. Her work bridges pedagogical theory and practical classroom inclusion strategies.

She earned her PhD from the Universitat de València in 2023 with a thesis titled La pesada mochila del alumnado con trastorno del espectro autista (TEA): análisis de los conocimientos, las actitudes y la autoeficacia de agentes educativos e imagen social proyectada en los medios de comunicación. While no recent publications are listed in the provided text, her research trajectory centers on special educational needs and language teaching.

She has contributed to academic supervision as part of her doctoral work, though no advisees are explicitly listed. No scientific awards or research grants are mentioned in the available information.

Her work is supported through active participation in two key research groups:

• GIEL – Research Group in the Teaching of Languages
