[Asia Economy Reporter Han Jinju] The Ministry of Education and the Korea Educational Development Institute will hold the 'SchoolForYou Online Art Camp' on the 28th to support the psychological and emotional recovery and artistic development of students with health disabilities.


Students with health disabilities are those who have chronic illnesses such as pediatric cancer and leukemia, requiring long-term hospitalization or outpatient treatment for more than three months, making it difficult for them to attend school and perform academically.


'SchoolForYou' is a remote learning system jointly operated by the Ministry of Education, metropolitan and provincial offices of education, and the Korea Educational Development Institute since 2018 to guarantee the learning rights of these students. It provides video classes and live video lessons according to the curriculum, counseling on daily life and academic advancement, attendance and learning management, and camps.


About 270 participants, including elementary, middle, and high school students using 'SchoolForYou,' as well as their parents and families, will take part in activities such as making canvas frames, stencil eco-bags, and pop art portraits. Opportunities will also be provided to watch drawing performances and share artworks with participants at an extended virtual world (metaverse) exhibition.



Ryu Hyesook, Director of Student Support, said, "I hope this will be an opportunity for students with health disabilities to socialize with their peers and showcase their artistic talents."
