Diversity and inclusion
There is no ideal learner.
Zapiens isn't made for one kind of person. Whoever arrives may be fascinated or tired, have time to spare or an exam tomorrow. We want everyone to find a place, and we don't want to build barriers without noticing.
Different people, different days
We all learn and teach, at different moments. Sometimes on the same day.
Someone learning
They come because they want to understand, or because they need to. Saying "I don't get it yet" isn't failure: it's the starting point.
Someone teaching
They don't have to be a teacher: it can be a classmate or someone who just discovered something. Teaching isn't standing above; it's standing beside.
Someone exploring
They don't always come for an answer. Curiosity is available, not demanded: you can follow it, drop it or come back to it months later.
Someone keeping company
A friend, a teacher, a family member. Learning with someone also counts.
There are curious days and "I need to finish this for tomorrow" days. Both count. Zapiens shouldn't only serve people at their best.
Barriers we keep in mind
Not all of them are solved. We name them so we can work on them.
Decisions we've already made
Concrete things you can check in the product and on this site.
- Practicing doesn't use credits: it's free.
- The same lesson can be practiced eight ways, because there isn't one right way to study.
- What you miss comes back sooner in review.
- The AI suggests the lesson and the person decides what stays.
- Across the site: keyboard navigation, visible focus and a skip-to-content link.
- No animations when your system asks for reduced motion.
- Each page declares the real language of its text, so screen readers pronounce it correctly.
Reviewing components one by one is not a certification. The technical details are in the accessibility statement.
SDG target 4.5
Inclusion and access
Target 4.5 calls for eliminating gender disparities in education and ensuring equal access for people in vulnerable situations, including persons with disabilities and indigenous peoples. It's much broader than a good interface. Our design decisions are concrete actions, but on their own they don't show that inequalities are shrinking.
Did you run into a barrier?
If something in Zapiens or on this site keeps you from learning or teaching, tell us. We review it and, when we can, we fix it.
