Increasing the responsible behavior of the SEN parents towards online education and/or using ICT in education O5. Facilitating SEN student development and/or regress limitation after online education during pandemic period by using ICT/digital materials and methods

Background

We, the partners, saw our partnerships as an opportunity to pass over Covid-19 negative effects and more to built positive results starting from there. COVID-19 Pandemic threw the schools all over the world in a dark age in the spring of 2020, but after an year also good things emerged from this, many actors in education exceeding their limits. Still, we considered there was much more to do in order the pupils who passed or are still passing through online school as remote work experience to get over it and to incorporate it into everyday life. Aiming to base on facts, we had started our 2 years journey from: the results of a research study “Online activities in special education” presented by project coordinator in November 2020 at a conference and a SWOT Analyze conducted among project partners. Even when the social and emotional aspects were an issue for all, we discovered that for SEN students the damages were even worse, because it is less about knowledge and more about development in all important areas: cognition, language, motricity, perception, even basic skills, areas we worked to cover during project.
