Overall objectives of the inclusive learning resource
Inclusive learning intervention logic: (What are the overall broader objectives to which the action will contribute?)
Q4S is developing a web resource to provide support for disabled young people undertaking courses in mainstream post 16 education. The resource will enable them to identify barriers to their learning and provide them with strategies, practical advice and resources to overcome these barriers.
Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (What are the key indicators related to the overall objectives?)
Sources and means of verification: (What are the sources of information for these indicators?)
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?)
The resource also aims to enable young disabled students to become more powerful self advocates and to become better informed about possible adaptations to teaching and/or equipment that should be provided by their schools or colleges. As a result, Q4S will contribute to disabled students integration into mainstream training and subsequently into employment. The web resource will be available in English, Bulgarian, Greek and Turkish.
Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (Which indicators clearly show that the objective of the actions/resource has been achieved?)
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?)
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?
Expected results on implementation of the resource
Inclusive learning intervention logic: (The results are the outputs envisaged to upscale. What are the expected results?)
Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (What are the indicators to measure whether and to what extent the action/resource achieves the expected results?)
Sources and means of verification: (What are the available sources of information for these indicators?)
The CD for this web resource is with MCA to be provided.
Risks and Challenges: (What external conditions must be met to obtain the expected results on schedule?)
Activities
Inclusive learning intervention logic: (What are the key activities to be carried out and in what sequence in order to reach the expected results?)
1. Research: this has been completed. It included establishing the similarities and differences between partner countries in relation to VET,disability provision and relevant legislation. The partners have also completed research into the views and learning needs of almost 200 young disabled people across the four partner countries.
2. Website and web resource design: this has been completed through discussion and negotiation with the project’s IT consultants, ICO3, who are based in Plymouth in the UK.
3. Web resource content: this was created by the UK partner and will be translated from English into the partners’ languages by October 2010.
4. Piloting: The web resource will be piloted with its target users in all partner countries from October 2010 to January 2011.
5. Review and final launch: Following any revisions to the content or design of the web resource based on the feedback that we receive, the Q4S final version will be launched formally at a multinational dissemination event in September 2011. The venue for this important event will be announced in the next newsletter.
Objectively verifiable indicators of achievement: (What are the means required to implement these activities, e.g. personnel, equipment, training, studies, supplies, operational facilities, etc.)
Sources and means of verification: (What are the sources of information about action progress?)
Risks and Challenges: (What pre-conditions are required before the use of the resource starts? What conditions outside the user's direct control have to be met for the implementation of the planned activities?)
Users can not obtain it online, it will be needed to have access through MyHUB plataform.
