What is LeHo
Learning at Home and in the Hospital (LeHo)
LeHo is a European project tasked with developing an online hub to provide tools and resources for people engaged with or involved in home- and hospital-based education
Its main aim is to explore ICT-based solutions that enable children in hospital, at home or attending school part-time, to access an appropriate educational provision

6. Innovative Practices (IP) collection

7. Innovative Practices (IP) collection
All partners were invited to contribute to the collection and add their experiences
CHS analysed the list based on the key educational factors (KEFs) that were the outcome of focus group discussions with medics and teachers involved in hospital school education. These are:
Relationships
Making sense and constructing knowledge
Assuming roles
Metacognition
Individualities
Inter-institutional communication 

8. Innovative Practices (IP) collection
Based on analysis, CHS identified 4 IPs that covered most of the KEFs. These were the best match for the needs of the school
Instruction Cards/TA instructions were drawn up for these 4 KEFs, with a view that these could be used as a basis for anyone (teachers, hospital staff or parents) wishing to use them to carry out their own TAs at their own institution
These Instruction Cards serve as templates for all partners to create their own, based on their chosen IPs from the collection
