Floe aims to provide the resources needed to enable inclusive access to personally relevant, engaging learning opportunities for the full diversity of learners and content producers. Through the Open Education Resources community, FLOE will build tools that transform, augment, and personalize the learning experience.

h5. Description

Learners learn best when the experience is personalized to individual needs. OER is an ideal learning environment to meet the diverse needs of learners, including learners with disabilities. The FLOE (Flexible Learning for Open Education) Project will support the OER community in providing a sustainable, integrated approach to accessible learning, addressing the needs of learners who currently face barriers.

Floe will produce:

* an authoring toolkit to assist in authoring flexible resources
[Inclusive Learning Design Handbook|http://handbook.floeproject.org]

* an engaging outreach and awareness program for both the OER community and the accessibility community to encourage collaboration in meeting diverse learner needs
[Mozilla Drumbeat Inclusive Learning Project|https://www.drumbeat.org/en-US/projects/help-i-dont-get-it/]

this solution will be part of the [Fluid Infusion code solution|http://fluidinfusion.org/].

* integration with existing OERs
Floe partners include [Connexions|http://cnx.org], [OER Commons|http://www.oercommons.org/advanced-search], and [Open Courseware Consortium|http://www.ocwconsortium.org/] to name a few.
