ADEDU: Accessible Digital EDUcation

ADEDU will support educators of learners with disabilities to enhance their digital skills.

Digital transition in education has been a springboard for some children to learn in new and dynamic ways. However, it has also proven to be a hindrance for others, if not done properly. Many with learning disabilities found it difficult to keep up with digital changes in school and beyond.

Supporting the inclusion of learners affected by learning disabilities, understanding diversity and embracing diversity in society, especially in education, is even more complex within the digital transition. The ADEDU project will produce a training that will help educators of learners with disabilities to enhance their digital skills to facilitate inclusion in the education sector in Europe
