FOROTECH11 AÑOS DE COOPERACIÓN TECNOLÓGICA

Designed for students from 6th year Primary Education to 2nd year secondary students.

Computational thinking prepares us to solve everyday problems by applying computer logic. Thanks to board games and programming challenges, a wide range of skills and abilities can be acquired that are necessary in the context of STEAM areas and in the personal and academic development of young people. Through MOON board game we will learn to count in binary, to perform logical and mathematical operations as a real computer would do (add, subtract, rotate bits, copy bits, logic gates such as OR, AND, XOR, etc.).

Aimed at students from 1st year secondary education to 2nd year baccalaureate students.

Lempel is a game for the development of computational thinking that goes beyond pure algorithmics and programming. In today's society where speed of data delivery and size are important, a way must be found to represent the same information in less space (bits). Therefore, based on pattern recognition, this game proposes a series of challenges of increasing difficulty where participants will have to compress text strings as they enter information processing.
 

Aimed at students from 5th year primary education to 2nd year ESO secondary students.

Scratch is a programming environment that allows you to write programmes in an easy and intuitive way without the need for programming knowledge. With Scratch, students start programming characters, animations and even their own video games. They play, investigate and test how to programme the elements of a story using a very simple graphical interface. Scratch helps young people learn to think logically and creatively, as well as to work in teams.

Aimed at students from 5th year primary education to 1st year ESO secondary students.

Kodetu poses a series of visual programming challenges of increasing difficulty that do not require prior programming knowledge. Kodetu's workshops are suitable for first time programming students, and open their senses to computational thinking.

Aimed at students from 1st year ESO secondary education to 2nd year Baccalaureate students.

Micro:bit is a small programmable board that incorporates a large number of sensors and actuators. In the workshop, students will learn how to create and programme a device with different functionalities, which can be used to play games, take measurements or even create melodies.
