Specific Learning Disabilities affect about 15 % of the general population. Unfortunately, teachers are scarcely aware of the impact of such disabilities on school life. Additionally, families are unprepared to cope with the specific needs and obstacles of their children with SLD.
The support system is different in each country of the EU but all share similar challenges with a lack of open and reliable resources for the general public. For example: online training about dyslexia is hardly accessible and only in English.
To provide a better answer to that problematic reality, we have created the project “MOOC Dys”, an international and multilingual MOOC.
