CODING AND ROBOTICS IN EDUCATION - Improve Digital Skills to Set Your Students up for the Future
In this comprehensive program, educators will gain valuable knowledge, skills, and practical tools to effectively integrate coding and robotics into their classrooms. Throughout the course, participating teachers will explore the foundations of coding, learn programming languages, and discover how to leverage robotics as a powerful educational tool.
Description
Coding and robotics is becoming an essential way to integrate with our modern world as technology advances increasingly in our lives. The sooner our students begin to learn and master coding and robotics technologies, the better prepared they will be for the changing world and job specs of the future. This course is designed for teachers of all subjects both who wish to step into the world of coding & robotics to enrich the classes by applying these technologies and who already master the use of coding and robotics but seeking to gain new ideas and skills with a variety of sources and materials. During our workshops the participants will learn by doing with robots -by working in small groups with each robot (max3 participants per robot - getting to know min 10 types of robots) , and at the same time they will be provided constructive inputs about theory, support, teamwork, social skill development in the classroom. The participant teachers will gain first hand experience about how writ
