Community Learning and Development Device Fund 2022 (360G-SCVO-a133z00000LQsTSAA1)
We are looking to purchase an innovative piece of equipment Magic Mirror™ which can support a wide range of accessible learning content and deliver personalised learning opportunities where content can be optimised for individual needs. Magic Mirror™ opens up a new mode of interactive game play and allows people that use mixed access technologies to play and communicate together in fun activities. Create engaging communication apps and bring people together. Participants can use iPads and Windows computers to create innovative learning games, to further their digital literacy. Using the magic mirror and ipads participants with mobility issues will be able to fully immerse themselves in coding skills, to work informally on education and do active play within their ability range using the state of the art equipment. We will use this equipment to teach participants how to build games, in app developments, search the web, learning digital Skills Development : Capturing, creating, editing and combining images, text, sound, animation, video, data and code participants will collaborate in pairs and larger groups, to search, research, synthesising and present information.We are also wanting to get Magic Eye FX software which has been designed to develop access and communication skills through creative play and gaming. The software supports eye gaze, speech, switching, touch, game controllers, mouse and keyboard inputs and offers 100s of thoughtfully designed activities. To go with the Magic Eye FX software we are looking to get a specific laptop tray that allows for us to connect the eve tracking software to the laptop that we received from the COP26 SCVO and Microsoft donations, this will allow for individuals with only eye movements to be able to not just use the magic room, but also be able to create programs, type documents and do other basica things with computers that would require the use of movement of limbs. The devices will remain in the Renfrew YMCA building however, these will be accessible for use for the young people we work with as well as other memes of the community, we have great links with the local schools. The local ASN school utilises our space frequently and with this technology we will be able to offer greater support to young people with additional needs.
