  1. Rejoignez-nous le 2 juin prochain pour repenser la création de ressources pédagogiques ! 🚀

    L'équipe du projet #GTnumForges sera présente à la Journée UP, organisée par le service APPUI, pour y animer un atelier interactif.

    Un événement ouvert à tous, axé sur « les initiatives pédagogiques portées par les enseignants de Le Mans Université ».

    🛠️ L'atelier : Venez tester la nouvelle interface simplifiée de Forge Editor ! Nous organiserons des tests UX en direct pour récolter vos retours et co-construire avec vous cet outil dédié à la création de REL, loin de la complexité technique habituelle.

    👋 L'équipe : L'atelier sera animé par Tangi Bénéat (Développement) et Lucas Chesneau (Design UX).

  2. Blog post by Janis Latimore on using HUMOROUS poetry to help young minds explore language and emotion.

    The article details ways to guide children, showing how:
    1. Humor reinforces language comprehension
    2. Poetry provides a structured emotional release
    3. Creativity flourishes when the pressure is off

    Highly recommended reading for anyone focused on early literary development.

  3. Really wishing there was a good textbook reading app for someone with both visual and cognitive #disabilities.

    I just started a new course at Colorado Christian University, and this week's reading is 7 chapters from a book called Introducing Christian Doctrine—which is pretty heavy stuff. I've been struggling just to get through the first chapter.

    I tried reading in Word with JAWS, but quick navigation keys keep getting disabled, and adding comments isn’t very accessible. So I switched to the ePub version in Bookworm, which lets me add bookmarks, named bookmarks, and comments. That’s been a huge help.

    For notes, I’m using Joplin, which works well for organizing thoughts in Markdown. And when I hit a sentence I don’t understand—like “propounded dogmatically” (what even is that?)—I just open Copilot in the browser and ask for a plain-language explanation.

    It’s not perfect, but it’s working. I just wish there were tools designed with both cognitive load and screen reader accessibility in mind. Reading theology is hard enough without fighting the tech too.

    (My degree is in computer science, but theology is part of the core curriculum.)
