Our resources focusing on the Paralympics in Australia are aimed at primary school students but can be adapted to a range of learning contexts. The I’mPOSSIBLE resources include lesson plans, worksheets and PowerPoint presentations for both primary and secondary teachers. These lesson plans can be used individually or to form a unit of work.

Inclusive education CYDA as the co-chair of the Australian Coalition for Inclusive Education (ACIE) wrote to the Disability Royal Commission to raise with our collective concerns about the discrimination and neglect currently facing children and young people with disability during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the risk of increased violence and abuse. CYDA is convening weekly COVID-19 meetings with the ACIE and other disability advocates working with children and young people with disability and their families around Australia. ACIE has also developed a resource Learning at home during a time of crisis: COVID19 (Coronavirus). This resource has been developed to help parents support their children while schools are pupil free or closed in these uncertain times. This resource is to assist children and young people with disability and families to organise and plan for learning at home during the COVID-19 pandemic.
STEM and policy aspects of COVID-19 made simple
To help us make sense of the crisis, learn-tech.io called on experts from around the world to help demystify COVID-19 in a short, practical course. COVID-19 Demystified has been developed for three key audiences. Firstly, the more than 1bn young people now shut out of classrooms who still seek education. Secondly, the wider public who are ‘drinking from a firehose’ of ‘news’. Information that frequently includes much disinformation and fake news. Thirdly, those decision makers and policy makers seeking to understand more about the challenges they face. Each of these audiences really needs opportunities to learn more about the pandemic both to protect their own lives and the lives of others. The scientific and mathematical complexity behind fighting COVID-19 means that many people lack tools to understand fully the impact of their own actions. Without such tools, misinformation and ignorance spread easily and can amplify negative effects of the pandemic. Those with no understanding of the science of the pandemic have sought to destroy 5G infrastructure, or adopt false cures bringing risk and harm to themselves. Some have adopted blame and hatred rather than nurtured their own understanding. The Demystification team hopes that this course will aid understanding and ultimately it will aid the fight against COVID-19. We all hope COVID 19 Demystified could be a key weapon in our fight against the pandemic and its effects.
