Overall objectives of the inclusive learning resource

Inclusive learning intervention logic: (What are the overall broader objectives to which the action will contribute?) 

WAI-NOT offers an accessible website for young people who need extra support. The range varies from educational to (re) creative, informative and certainly interactive. WAI-NOT wants to work actively on social inclusion specifically for people with an intellectual disability. Our activities focus on children and young people as well as on adults, their supervisors, parents and teachers.

Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (What are the key indicators related to the overall objectives?) 

It enables practitioners to reach extra online exercises for reading and listening. In addition to that teachers can follow students practices via online platform.

Sources and means of verification: (What are the sources of information for these indicators?) 

 WAI-NOT has been created as a fruit of long term theoretical framework and data collection. Experts worked on initial material and topics for creating enjoyable and educative online tools for student who struggling reading and listening. The website created and supported with visual and sound files. This tool can be used by an individual or, teachers can register their students as a group. This program has training opportunity for schools and individuals. 

Risks and Challenges:


Specific purpose of the inclusive learning resource

Inclusive learning intervention logic: (What specific objective is the resource intended to achieve to contribute to the overall objectives?) 

Project aims to reach mainly young people who are difficult or unable to read and write. We use a clearly understandable language supported by text marking, speech and images. You can communicate with language as well as with icons or in a combination of both. We provide a fixed and clear structure with a clear layout. You will not find a link or advertisement that redirects you to other websites in WAI-NOT. Young people with an intellectual disability or multiple disabilities, including visual, motor and intellectual disabilities, will certainly enjoy themselves in our accessible website.

Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (Which indicators clearly show that the objective of the actions/resource has been achieved?) 

WAI-NOT is being used by several students, parents and teachers. Many users subscribed as individual or a group. Both online tool and other platforms related with project (such as chatrooms)

Sources and means of verification: (What are the sources of  information that exist or can be collected? What are the methods required to get this information?) 

After creating an online account students can reach online tool  and practice over online platform. With created accounts all practices will be saved. So improvement process can  be followed by parents(via online tool) and by teachers (via online platform). In addition to that users can create online chatroom for texting.

Risks and Challenges: (Which factors and conditions outside the user's responsibility are necessary to achieve that objective? (external conditions)) Which risks should be taken into consideration?  

Achievement can be reached in the long run. So, users should continue to practice perpetually.
