“My students didn't know much about disability so it was hard for them to care about these issues.”
“They are now aware of simple things that make a difference.”
“Now I say to my Grandpa: Please Grandpa, don’t park your car on the pavements.” “Now I say to my sister: Marianna, don’t call the children with disabilities special because they don’t like it and they aren’t different.”

The wheelchair basketball team had been getting staleand the players were not motivated.

“Mobility disability is not included in the school textbook.”
“My students put themselves in the position of the wheelchair user and tried to understand his feelings and the difficulties he faced.”
“I think that everyone can do something to support these people.”
“I truly believe that all people with disabilities want is a positive comment and company which will not remind them of their problem. Let’s give it a try!”

“After the lessons I definitely started thinking differently. In addition I learned to appreciate my life and deal with my problems differently.”
“I‘ve started noticing the ramps on the streets and that often cars are parked in front of them. I decided to take action. I think calling the police or leaving a note in people’s cars may be a good way to start.”
“The warm up revealed stereotypes.”
“The material encouraged them to recognize their own responsibilities as citizens.”
