IO1 - Toolkit for tackling Learning Disabilities in Math

Objectives of activities carried out:

This phase is devoted to identify and define students’ Learning Disabilities in Math. It foresees 4 questionnaires:
- 2 addressed to teachers aiming at illustrating which difficulties a student may have and identifying the best strategies that the teacher can apply to tackle this difficulties.
- The other 2 are addressed to students in order to identify their Learning Disabilities in Math.

Thanks to the results of the different questionnaires the project partners will be able to create new tools to monitor and intervene to overcome such Disabilities.

Description of activities carried out:

Pixel, in cooperation with Unige, produced a detailed calendar of activities in order to identify the different partners' roles, deadlines and responsibilities. Pixel also contributed to the development of the following templates:
- IO1.A – Difficulties Identification Questionnaire
- IO1.B – Strategies Identification Questionnaire

The forms have been presented and approved during the kick off meeting.
Pixel also implemented the related section on the project portal.
Pixel continuously monitored and supported the work of the partners for the development of the intellectual output.

At the current stage, the questionnaires for teachers and students have been administrated by partners and Pixel is collecting the results sent by project partners. Moreover, Pixel worked with UniGe in order to develop the templates for the intervention tools and monitoring tool.
Now Pixel together with UniGe is collecting the intervention and monitoring tools in order to be checked.
Pixel is also organising the section related to the tools on the project portal in order to enhance its usability. At the current stage, some Intervention and Monitoring tools are finalised and uploaded on the project portal. Pixel is also taking care of the formatting of the other tools in order to be then uploaded on the portal.
