Description

We are Foundation for the Development of Warmia and Mazury Region whose mission is to support disadvantaged groups in our community, and in particular children with developmental challenges.

The Transgenerational Centre for Rehabilitation and Education will offer broadly understood psychological rehabilitation through didactic activity, intended mainly for children and youth suffering from psychiatric and neurological conditions and sensory integration dysfunctions. It will also help the elderly at risk of social exclusion.

The Centre will combine didactics with active rehabilitation based on virtual ICT solutions. We will develop a wide range of e-learning courses in the areas of school curriculum (sciences, languages, geography etc.) for different age levels, and technical skills, which will be offered through an internet platform and use the virtual reality technology. Users will be able to take advantage of the courses either at home or in a mobile rehabilitation and education center in the form of an adjusted TIR vehicle. The mobile centre will be equipped with touch screens, tablets, educational robots (KUBO RObotics), iMO-Learn cubes and 15 VR Google sets.

To prepare the courses, experienced school teachers will be involved, as well as a scientific unit which will prepare VR courses for mentally impaired children in two age groups, and for the elderly. Also we will purchase a multifunctional e-learning platform and production services for 180 educational and therapeutic courses using VR technology.
