From 31 January 2019 till 30 January 2021 a team of researchers from the Scientific Institute of Pedagogy of the Faculty of Education, Psychology and Art of the University of Latvia in cooperation with partners from Bulgaria, Cyprus and Belgium has implemented the project “MyHUB - a one-stop-shop on inclusion practices, tools, resources and methods for the pedagogical staff at formal and non-formal educational institutions” (604454-EPP-1-2018-1-LV-EPPKA3-IPI-SOC-IN). Project partners have collected materials and good practices tested in international practice for implementing inclusive education at different educational levels. Annotations of materials are already available in English, Latvian, Bulgarian, Greek and Dutch in the MyHUB repository. The MyHUB Handbook contains an information on the principles of inclusive education and the situation in the project countries.
In a video presented above, Kārlis Greitāns, a researcher at the Interdisciplinary Center for Educational Innovation of the University of Latvia, a teacher of chemistry and natural sciences and a PhD student of a study programme “Educational Sciences”, shares his experience of inclusive education and expresses his opinion on MyHUB project materials. Kārlis Greitāns has learned about the repository and handbook developed in the MyHUB project while studying for a doctorate at the University of Latvia. In the MyHUB repository, he has found useful material on teaching and learning strategies in science. The information obtained helps him to better organize work with students with different learning needs. According to him, the materials could be used by teachers, university teaching staff and creators of in-service teachers’ professional development programmes.
Kārlis Greitāns believes that the MyHUB repository has managed to summarize the achievements of various authors in the field of inclusive education from different points of view. He recommends using the MyHub platform for teachers and educators with good ICT skills and experience related to working with Moodle courses.
