SPECTRUM: Supporting Elementary School Teachers in Recognizing and Understanding Minors with Special Educational Needs

<< Objectives >>The project aims to address the acute shortage of teachers trained in special pedagogy and provide support for those who work with children with disabilities. The project has three main priorities: promoting inclusion and diversity in education, supporting teachers and school leaders, and developing high-quality education and care. These priorities are all geared towards improving the support and resources available to teachers who work with children with disabilities. << Implementation >>The project aims to provide nine detailed activities. The guidelines will be intuitive infographics, and the best practices will include methods such as creating designated safe learning spaces, using technology and gamification, and storytelling. The project will provide specific activities and tools to help teachers put these best practices into use, such as designated fonts and turning color or number matching into a game. The goal is to provide teachers with practical resources. << Results >>The project aims to address the shortage of trained teachers in special pedagogy and support those who work with children with disabilities without adequate systemic support. The project has three priorities: promoting inclusion and diversity in education, supporting teachers and school leaders, and developing high-quality education and care.
