Through the implementation of our project, we aim to create and test a practical teaching material and related student workbook for reducing skill gaps of teachers and teacher training students in the counseling practice of children with various disabilities and adjustment difficulties. We are committed to bringing a relevant apport toward promoting excellence in teacher training by introducing the new pedagogical object to regular teacher training higher education curricula.

We will develop a teaching-learning material on the topic of counseling practice in special needs education. The creation and testing of the educational material will be provided through workshops, training, and summer course. To share experiences and good practices, we will carry out mobility activities. The project will disseminate its results to the relevant target groups and the general public.

We expect to obtain results in better knowledge of students involved in teacher training. Their professional competencies will gain stability and allow better utilization of counseling techniques. A long-term impact will be palpable in the everyday teaching practice and inclusion-related experiences of both professionals and persons who benefit from their help. The project will have as a result the harmonized practice of inclusion support and HE teaching quality.
