Our students must be prepared for a changing world, with the knowledge and the competencies for acting conscious in a participative citizenship. As qualified professionals, they must have the needed skills for jobs that do not yet exist today.
As research suggest, not only in the near future, but already today, computational thinking will be a core competence in everyday activities. Many of today jobs will be replaced by automation and new jobs will be created or evolve to incorporate programming, electronic and other complex systems.
As these skills are essential to thrive in today’s world, know how to program robots and computers has to be a fundamental part of the way people think and understand the world.
In this course, teachers will learn how to easily program tangible devices to achieve significant results in the classroom.
Course participants will gain a solid knowledge and practice with hands on real devices like robots and drones (ex: parrot drones, arduino based systems and others).
