0 Online activities for children with learning disabilities.

Over the last decade more and more parents and carers of children with learning difficulties are seeking online activities and games to help their children learn in a fun, safe and rewarding environment.

Results have shown that children and those children with special education needs love to play games online and master aspects of fun educational games. Some children as young as two are now able to operate a computer, and navigate around Ipads and tablets with great ease.

Of course, it is important to know your children are learning and communicating in a safe environment, and Game to Learn, an online resource for children of primary school age, ensures just that.
In a time of sweeping school budget cuts, dozens of local teachers have begun to look outside the school system to improve classroom needs.

E-Learning and Gamification is an excellent way to enhance the classroom and learning experience whilst being reactive to learners needs, and saving money.

Game to Learn E-learning, which is compliant with the UK National Curriculum; provides an educational environment which is easy to keep up to date with, and can be delivered in a quick and efficient manner to all pupils, including those with learning difficulties.

Throughout the development, planning and trialling of Game to Learn, it has been proven that online learning offers a range of benefits in a fast-paced working environment, and that the virtual classroom can provide a useful resource to access information quickly and at the point of need.

The speed at which e-learning learning content can be created and delivered to multiple users allows for schools to deliver enhanced learning in a much shorter period compared to the time it would take to deliver in a more traditional manner.

This, and the ability to reach out and engage with students of varying level of intellect has been one of the greatest drivers in the adoption of e-learning.

Game to Learn is the new generation of e-learning using gaming, simulation and video, as well as animation, and has allowed for more complex issues to be explored in a fun and interactive way.

Engaging students with learning disabilities.

All content on Game to Learn has been carefully selected by education specialists, parents and teachers to ensure that is safe, fun, engaging and appropriate for children of all learning stages, including those with special needs, and those who find it hard to keep up with other children of the same age.

Although initially Game to Learn wasn't specifically designed for special needs children, feedback has shown that it is a valuable teaching tool for children with learning disabilities, children with ADHD, autistic children and other special needs kids.
Game to Learn has a lot of visual stimulation, colourful graphics, and sounds, and the children can use the website on their own - encouraging independent learning and discovery.

When using Game to Learn, children will learn valuable computer skills, improve their typing, spelling, keyboard and mouse control, and all while playing fun educational games.
They can express themselves by customising their own online character that matches how they would like to be seen, and communicate with friends in a safe environment, which is interactive and allows them to learn at their own pace.

The website will be fully operational in 2012, but in the meantime you can visit the website at http://www.gametolearn.net or 'Like' the Facebook Page at http://www.facebook.com/gametolearn

Make your start in the future of learning!
