AIM:
To equip educators with innovative methods in robotics and coding. By providing
specialized training and support to teachers,we anticipate creating a transformative impact in classrooms across participating countries. Empowered educators will impart technical knowledge, and cultivate a culture of curiosity experimentation, and critical thinking among their students
Objectives:
-Enhancing Educator Proficiency: We aim to equip 60% of educators with innovative methods in robotics & coding through specialized training programs in transnational activities and via project results
-Fostering Student Interest and Excellence in STEM: Another key objective is to ignite passion and curiosity for STEM disciplines among 70% of students (45 students in mobilities and at least 2200 students in partner schools totally) across partner schools
-Promoting Collaboration and Innovation
Implementation:
a. 2 transnational teacher training activities:
1.Empowering Teachers for Digital Leaders of Tomorrow -Teacher Training in
Lithuania
2. Robotics Integration and Project-Based Learning -Training in Malta
b. 3 pupil exchange activities:
- Creative Coding and Design in Romania
- Tech Innovators Workshop in Turkey
- Digital Design and Innovation Camp in Spain
Results:
-Developed coding skills of both students and teachers in secondary schools
-Developing team work skills, social skills, computational and critical thinking ability
-Having a clear vision of career development for students - -Gaining pedagogical and methodological experiences for educators
Concrete results
-Teacher & Student Digital Learning Kit
-Project Website & Social Media
