DID.VALUE: an international project focused on building an open digital framework for educational resources on inclusive jobs and traineeships for young people with disabilities

The study in question focuses on the development of a digital and open framework, with the objective of being an educational resource for young adults over the age of 18 years and with intellectual disabilities. This project is part of an international initiative called DID. Value and aims to empower young adults for inclusive internship and employment scenarios. This framework consists of an adapted model of digital training, in which the adopted methodology goes through a phased process, step-by-step and using the various digital tools, to make the learning experience the most intuitive possible. Furthermore, this model used two resources widely utilised in online education, Perusall and Moodle to establish a platform rich in interactive content. In addition, other features such as H5P, interactive manuals, videos and virtual scenarios were used to enable a unique experience for participants, including real-life contexts, with challenges, activities and exercises that would lead participants to have an active and contributory position. Thus, we will analyse the building model of this framework, understand the best practices achieved in terms of content and structure for online teaching and training. In addition, we will make a brief analysis of the use of some specific digital resources and why they are best suited for this type of target audience.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
