Objective
People with sight difficulties are a minority and there are therefore relatively few national organisations that deal with their educational needs. A transnational response to this problem is needed. This project aims to develop computer-based learning solutions for people with sight difficulties. The training will be targeted at both young people and workers. The outcomes will be flexible, and will take into account the different starting levels of knowledge and skills of participants. As a result, the materials will enable participants to reach different levels according to their abilities and needs.
The partners will develop : a set of special teaching materials for the effective tuition of participants; a specific teaching methodology; a list of job opportunities for people with sight difficulties; specially tailored curricula (in line with job opportunities); a network of specially-equipped workplaces in every country; and a contact network to enable people with a sight handicap to exchange their experience.
The modules developed will cover the following subjects : basic computer technology; text reading and processing; special programmes (diary planners, data bases); and communication supports (i.e. automatic telephone dialling).
Impact
The training developed by this project will broaden the potential opportunities of people with sight difficulties and ensure that they are judged according to their individual abilities, irrespective of their handicap.
