'Tabliteracy' - ELearning at ILS
Picture


​December 2018 - We have started piloting an ELearning project using Tablets and literacy apps to help low-level learners. We are researching and developing a system which will help the most excluded learners accelerate the language and literacy competence to make living in Ireland a more inclusive experience. ‘Tabliteracy’ involves using a suite of freely available literacy apps to help learners who come from diverse scripts – Arabic, Chinese, for example, or who have limited literacy/education in their own language, to get to grips with the English script and sound system.
