As a EU Codeweek Leading Teacher for Portugal, and in my free time as a writer on 3D Printing, Tech and education for Bi2Geek, a portuguese portal about science and technology, I'll dedicate a series of articles about coding and robotics in education. The goal is raising awareness of the general public, going beyond educational contexts. Tag for the articles: https://bit2geek.com/tag/eu-codeweek/ Articles already pubished: https://bit2geek.com/2018/11/05/da-robotica-ao-pensamento-computacional-educacao-para-o-seculo-xxi-299183904/ - coding, robotics and computational thinking; https://bit2geek.com/2019/05/02/cinco-projetos-de-robotica-educativa-criados-em-portugal-003958825/ - portuguese opensource and DIY educational robotics projects.

Click The Future
Mon, Apr 14, 2025 9:30 AM

O Click The Future apresenta um duplo objetivo: 

1) motivar jovens a aderir às áreas STEM;
2) combater desigualdades de oportunidade ligadas ao género e condições socioeconómicas. 

Como? Indo a escolas abrir horizontes de estudantes do ensino secundário de Portugal relativamente ao mundo da tecnologia! 

As nossas empresas tecnológicas parceiras, por intermédio de, preferencialmente, uma profissional de área STEM, serão desafiadas a explicarem aos participantes sobre o que é um dia nestas profissões. Em acréscimo, os/as participantes terão formações neste âmbito! 

Queremos ajudar a quebrar enviesamentos e dúvidas sobre o variado leque de oportunidades vocacionais nas áreas tecnológicas e esperamos, assim, ajudar a reduzir as diferenças de oportunidades no concurso a estas áreas.
