A $1,440 scholarship can support all three students with visual impairments for an entire school year, giving them the opportunity to learn, grow, and pursue their dreams. Every gift matters. Whether you give $10, $50, or $100, you can help them continue their education.๐Ÿ’™ Read their story and donate today: inable.org/media/blogs/this-โ€ฆ #InclusiveEducation #AssistiveTechnology #DigitalAccessibility #GivingTuesday #inABLE #inABLEImpact

This week, we were delighted to welcome the National Council for Persons with Disabilities team, led by Dr Michael Munene, to Likoni School for the Blind. The team enjoyed interacting with students and seeing firsthand how technology is supporting digital learning. It was exciting to see students put their digital skills into practice. Grades 1 and 2 demonstrated their keyboarding skills, while Grades 4, 5 and 6 showcased advanced typing and formatting using the Kenya Education Cloud as they prepare for KPSEA. We also shared more about the schoolโ€™s Python programming training, highlighting its accessibility, readability and widespread use in technology. By introducing students to coding, the Python lessons open up new opportunities to explore technology, creativity, and future possibilities. Mr Sammy, a senior teacher with a visual impairment, demonstrated how Chromebooks and assistive technology are helping integrate ICT into the CBC curriculum and create a more inclusive learning experience. ๐Ÿ’™ A lovely reminder of how accessible technology opens doors for students. ๐ŸŽ‰ #InclusiveEducation #DigitalAccessibility #AssistiveTechnology #Accessibility #inABLEImpact #StoriesOfAccess #AccessInAction
