"You don't necessarily need to be able to read and write, to use digital teaching technology. The same applies to our learning platform, itslearning. Here, you can upload all kinds of materials to the learning platform, including long texts, but you can also upload video and audio files that the target group, who are weak in reading and writing, can also benefit from."
