• Robotics workshop in the None Less
NaM’s robotics project, Lab Robótica Maker, was created in 2022 for children between 7 and 13 years old in Maré and is premised on theMaker Movement,, based on;“Do it yourself”that is, build, repair, manufacture or modify with your own hands what you need through reusable materials.
Children are encouraged to interact, teach and learn in a collaborative way.. This way of building knowledge is called active methodology STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics), promoting the development of computational thinking logic.
The robotics workshop takes place at Lona Cultural Municipal Herbert Vianna with two groups: the first serves children aged 7 to 9 years, from 3:30 pm to 5:00 pm, and the second serves children from 10 to 13 years of age, from 5:00 pm to 6:30 pm, offering the approach of some programming logic practices.
• Partnership with CE Professor João Borges de Moraes
Together with Colégio Professor João Borges de Moraes, an institutional partner of Redes since its opening, a team of 7 teenagers from the 1st year of high school was formed with the purpose of starting a project of inclusion in the computational area in the territory, thus making it possible, to the expansion of student training and the insertion of these adolescents in the job market,, which values and demands this knowledge..
In this context, the Peritech Maré project (Periferia e Tecnologia da Maré) emerges, with the objective of promoting the protagonism of students in digital technologies, promoting desired skills, such as socio-affective intelligence, cooperation, creativity, autonomy, logical reasoning of robot programming, scientific research and creation of innovative solutions to problems identified in the territory.
The project consists; of face-to-face and remote meetings for the development of scientific research, experiments with the construction and programming of robots, action planning, exchange of experiences within the team and with other interested students, knowledge of the tournaments for registration, in addition to the involvement of the families in the process..
In the first months, there are 4 hours of work per week, in addition to exchanges with other teams with face-to-face and/or virtual visits.. Young people also participate in human and scientific training activities in the field of science and technology with project partners at each tournament. .
