Aiming at the development of skills for the students of the 21st century and familiarizing them with science and technology, the Kalambaka Library carries out robotics educational programs in schools in remote villages of the Municipality of Meteora.On Friday, November 11, the first robotics lesson was held at the Kindergarten and the Primary School of Oxyneia with the educational packages mTiny and WeDo 2.0. The small, cute robot panda delighted the kindergarten children and strengthened their passion for learning and discovery. The primary school students showed a strong interest for programming. They designed models, redesigned solutions, analyzed data and tested many functions of the software to satisfy their curiosity about robotics. With educational robotics, young students develop critical and analytical thinking and combine learning and playing, turning education into an interactive fun activity. They observe, reflect and discover new ways to solve problems and achieve goals. They discover basic programming concepts and go on a journey of exploration in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM).
We would like to thank the teachers for their excellent cooperation and of course the students who welcomed us with joy.
