IMAS II
Improving Assistance in Inclusive Educational Settings II (IMAS II)
Project description: As part of the Erasmus+ project IMAS II (October 2018 - March 2021) funded by the European Union, five web-based knowledge boxes on relevant topics from the everyday work of school assistants will be developed and evaluated in cooperation with nine partner organizations from six European countries and the active involvement of experienced school assistants and students with and without disabilities. This offers a training opportunity for school assistants and other educational staff, which aims to contribute to the expansion of knowledge and the promotion of inclusive competences in order to adequately prepare school assistants for their professional requirements in supporting students with disabilities.
Short description: As part of this Erasmus+ project, which involved universities and primary schools from five partner countries (England, Denmark, Portugal, Spain and Austria), materials were developed and ways explored to enable all children in a class to participate in lessons. The "Inclusive Inquiry" model, a model of teacher training, was used for lesson development, which enables pupils to actively participate in teaching processes.
