How can educational technology truly include every child—regardless of learning profile, ability, or background? In this webinar, we spotlight onebillion's pioneering work with the LEGO Foundation to create EdTech that supports neurodiverse learners. Designed for children with varied cognitive and learning needs, onebillion’s tablet-based software delivers individualized literacy and numeracy learning that is both accessible and evidence-based. We will highlight how redefining design thinking and content through a neurodiversity lens can benefit all learners.
Join Dr. Aida Layachi, whose research highlights how digital learning environments can embrace neurodiversity, and learn from onebillion how their inclusive design offers a transformative model for equitable education in low-resource settings.
