TEKOM´BOE: Palliative Education

Our students' achievements are their achievements...our students' failures are ours.

Hybrid therapeutic-pedagogical format (artisanal-technological) that guarantees the Right to Education and therapies to people with Disabilities in contexts of refugees, displaced persons, transhumant communities and post-disasters (adaptable even to war contexts).

Adaptation to response formats to emergency contexts, especially for students with Disabilities; I hope it constitutes a reference model of alternative/complementary didactic-pedagogical intervention/action for emergency contexts (post-catastrophes, refugees, displaced persons, migrant communities, remote areas), leaving installed capacity.

About the innovation

Why did you create this innovation?

The need to promote learning and cognitive accessibility in students with disabilities in vulnerable areas, garbage dumps, indigenous villages, and migrant communities; granize access to Education in areas of drug trafficking, smuggling, human trafficking, labor and infant mortality, as well as pedophilia and illiteracy.

What does your innovation look like in practice?

It looks functional, practical, impactful (traceable/measurable), achieving significant learning, designing new Cognitive Accessibility materials, and encourages discovery, exploration, wonder, manipulation and experimentation in learning immersed in its context.
It reduced school absenteeism, managed to establish Visual Thinking as an accessibility methodology, and solved the linguistic problems of border and intercultural-bilingual areas in dynamic and hybrid interaction (artisanal and technological) (we teach classes in 4 languages).
The practice reduced zoonoses and parasitosis, diseases, eradicated domestic accidents (poisonings, electrocutions, burns, fires, etc.), in addition to acquiring skills in the handling of materials and instruments that are significant in their context (hygiene issues, for example).
It provides situated, applicable (useful) learning focused on Emergency Pedagogy, and is a pedagogical response to social problems.

How has it been spreading?

It has been replicated in various communities (14 communities), and has been taken as a reference model, even awarded by the organization of Ibero-American States and the United Nations, as grants of health and education rights from didactic-pedagogical approaches.
The materials, strategy and intervention designs have been taken by organizations, schools and foundations as a reference model of educational intervention, and has allowed thousands of Ibero-American teachers to be trained in ways and means of Cognitive Accessibility and Educational Inclusion, especially for Special Education, Rural , Home-Hospital, Intercultural and Community.

If I want to try it, what should I do?

Just look at the examples of application, type of interventions, ideas for floor and wall games, and explanations of designs that are shared on social networks, conferences, workshops, and that keep a documentary record of impact and methodologies.

It is a low/zero cost format, between artisanal materials and complements with simple technologies (cell phones, tablets, VR lenses, platforms).

Implementation steps

Palliative Education
There are no steps or manuals).
It is based on the ability to adapt the content to be taught based on the real needs of instruction, methodology and application teaching and from there work on visual and scientific literacy, phenomenological awareness, situational awareness, and promote practical learning, from which to develop general culture and from it knowledge.
It is situated learning, within the framework of need, with innovation and didactic creativity adapted to the students' profile.
