EVERY CHILD IS SPECIAL: AN IEP PROJECT

Description

"Our project ""EVERY CHILD IS SPECIAL"" has been developed in order to increase the quality of education of the BEP (Individualized Education Program) students in our partner schools and the competence of our teachers in this regard. The most important issue that we agree on with our partners is learning and discover of innovative methods that can meet the variable needs and demands of our students with special needs at the highest level. According to our aim, our project activities are determined in four different categories, each will be held in different countries. These categories are determined according to the areas where countries are strong in practice.1) Students with Visual Impairment (Turkey)2) Students with Auditory Problems (North Macedonia)3) Students with Physical Disabilities (Romania)4) Students with Learning Disabilities and lack of Attention (Greece)Teachers who will see school technics, technical opportunities, education in arts and sports in different countries for students with special needs , also have the opportunity to apply these experiences in their schools. It is one of our most important objectives to provide our educational, intellectual and cultural development by transforming these experiences into knowledge and learning opportunities for a quality education. For this purpose, technology class, art class and sports hall in our schools will be developed for the high benefit of our students.Instead of a boring and outdated curriculum, it is the most important place in strategic planning that our students will be educated with an innovative and supportive curriculum learned from their experts.. With this project, many achievements will be gain in social, cultural and pedagogical terms.. While creating our activities in our project, workshops, exhibitions and games are especially designed to strengthen students' participation.Theoretical trainings make up the second main focus of our project. We have developed the materials with a holistic approach, considering all other environmental factors that affect the education of the family, school and student. During the project, the training groups consisting of academics of the Special Education and Social Work department of Hacettepe University – our project partner – will provide a training in each country that is suitable for the subject of the international meeting. After the project, they will also continue to support the whole group. Additionally, regarding to this theoretical trainings, each country will organize family trainings. Academic Skills Group, Teacher Support Group and Family Support Group trainings will be conducted for this purpose. It is envisaged that this support will be transformed into a cycle that covers not only Individual Education Programs (IEP) but also the monitoring and evaluation process. After the activities we will implement during the project, the Academic Skills Group will be an observation and support group that will measure the competencies of our teachers about IEP. In order to ensure that this cycle operates in a healthy way, the level of achievement of the targeted IEP’s objectives will be evaluated and IEPs will be reconstructed as a result of this evaluation. It is predicted that participant’s success in IEP will increase, which it will directly promote students' self-confidence and productivity. The seminars and workshops that we will make on this subject will be recorded as videos and shared with other schools, and also they will be posted on the websites of the project and schools too.Hacettepe University School Social Work Practice and Research Center (HOSMER) is a center that develops and implements many national and international innovative projects in the field of school social work. In our project, the director of this center acts as the coordinator of project partner (Hacettepe University), strengthening the quality of our practices. This, together with our partner schools, facilitates our goals for disseminating the results of our project and institutionalizing the school social work. For this reason, we pay special attention to disseminating the results of our project, increasing its efficiency and evaluation. In this project, E-books and DVDs containing each country's own activity plans and project results will be duplicated and distributed. In addition, after the project, the participants will share their experiences on IEP in neighboring schools with their colleagues. We believe that our project, which we have created to ensure that our IEP students receive education with the most accurate approaches, will be an example project for other schools.."
