eYES, a project designed by Multimedia Campus, has been selected by the European Union for receiving financial support within the Leonardo da Vinci programme.
eYES project aims at reducing the “digital divide”, between European citizens who can benefit from IT technologies (applied to education), and European citizens who cannot access the same technologies because of their disability. Specifically, the project aims at innovating national vocational training systems and practices addressed to Visually Impaired Persons. In order to achieve this objective, the partners will:
- Identify training and accessibility needs of visually impaired people in order to define the didactic methodology to be used for developing the new tools
- Develop two tools especially designed for VIPs: a software system for administering and providing online courses and an authoring tool for creating multimedia courses which are fully accessible to VIPs
- Distribute the results on a European level, raising the awareness about the needs of this group of citizens, and promoting the diffusion of e-learning among visually impaired people
