In order to achieve the ambitious objectives, tools have been generated adapted to the needs of teachers and students with low vision in the different learning modalities (on-site/ mixed/ distance):
MAIN RESULTS
O1- SEEING THE INVISIBLE: EDUCATIONAL APPLICATION FOR DIGITALIZATION INCLUSIVE OF THE CLASSROOM THROUGH MOBILE.
A software for Android and iOS that gives secondary school teachers the tools they need to: Generate materials for any secondary education course fully adapted to low vision. Create virtual classrooms in which to carry out teaching. Generate a process of reflection and learning between them and with low vision experts.
O2- VIRTUAL CURRICULAR PROPOSAL FOR TEACHERS: INCLUSIVE DIGITALIZATION IN SCHOOL EDUCATION.
An e-learning course implemented on the Inclusive Virtual Education (VIE) platform that through an innovative methodology seeks to complement the training of primary and secondary teachers for the inclusion in equity of students with low vision as a result of albinism or aniridia.
O3 – OERs ADAPTED TO STUDENTS WITH LOW VISION.
42 unique digital resources to support the teacher’s work in the classroom, not only because they are directly adapted to the low vision suffered by people with aniridia and albinism, but also because they include a wide variety of formats and types (APPs, assessment mechanisms, guidelines, disease detection systems, curricular adaptations…).
TANGIBLE RESULTS
R1 – SUCCESSFUL EXPERIENCES OF EDUCATIONAL INCLUSION OF YOUNG PEOPLE WITH RARE DISEASES AND LOW VISION
A manual with examples of experiences of inclusion of young people with low vision in education.
R2 – GUIDE FOR THE ADAPTATION OF A SECONDARY EDUCATION SCHOOL INTO AN INCLUSIVE SCHOOL FOR CHILDREN WITH VISUAL IMPAIRMENT
A brief guide for the heads of secondary schools with tips and proposals designed by experts, parents of children with visual impairment and researchers.
R3-ADVISORY SERVICE FOR TEACHERS
A service for teachers of students with low vision where they can consult their doubts or receive the help of experts in the field of rare diseases.
R4 – A WEB PLATFORM
An easily accessible space for school heads, students, and teachers to access all results of the project for free, to communicate with low vision experts, and learn more about our project and the Erasmus Plus Programme.
R5 – STRENGTHENING THE NETWORK ESTABLISHED IN 2018, IN WHICH NEW PARTNERS WILL PARTICIPATE
A network comprised of expert entities, educational centers, and federations or associations of young people who suffer from rare diseases.
R6 – THE EXCHANGE OF EXPERIENCES AND KNOWLEDGE BETWEEN THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF ORGANIZATIONS INVOLVED
An exchange that leads to the internationalization of the work of the entities while promoting intersectorial networking and a European-scale impact of the project. We offer a highly impactful project capable of alleviating the needs of any European teacher with students with low vision in the times that we have had to live, allowing them to improve inclusion in their classrooms, the educational achievements of their students (both with and without low vision), and adapting teaching to the digital environment of a post-COVID-19 society. This project is also easily replicable to other educational fields like Vocational Training, Higher Education, or even nonformal education.
