About this project

This project developed an accessible digital literacy self-assessment tool using plain language principles.  

It also offered personalised digital learning pathways linked to assistive technology.

More about this project

56 learners took part in three six-week GRETB digital literacy courses in Castlerea, Roscommon  town,  and Athenry.

Participants engaged with

  • digital skills assessments,

  • assistive technology support,

  • device trials,

  • one-to-one sessions, and

  • group classes.

The project played a huge part in reducing the digital divide for learners supported by Corlann.

“They are very enthusiastic to take part in another course in the future.”  - quote from a facilitator
