Despite progress in educational curricula, which now include computational thinking and the STEM approach, many teachers still need practical training and support to truly integrate these competencies into the classroom.
This training proposal offers a clear and accessible entry point for primary and secondary school teachers coming from a more analog background who wish to transition toward a more digital, creative, and meaningful education.
With a format of 20 in-person classroom hours and 52 hours of independent work with tutoring, the course combines knowledge, practice, and guidance. The journey includes computational thinking, programming, robotics, and STEM project design, all approached from a didactic and contextualized perspective.
It is an opportunity to transform the classroom and better prepare students for the challenges of the 21st century.
- Computational thinking. Theory and practice.
- Introduction to programming. Theory and practice.
- Block-based programming. Practice.
- STEM project design.
- Programmable boards. Theory and practice.
- Programming and programmable boards. Practice.
- Robotics. Theory, practice, and case studies.
