Project Summary

OBJECTIVES: we shared good practices to create a digital curricola (with a focus on coding, programming languages, robotics) to help children developing digitals skills. We also helped teachers to learn together: they shared their knowledge and good practises to realize a Coding community, they took part in online training events to develop their competences
Our target groups inside the partnership were the students, with a focus on girl students to stimulate them taking up STEM and also students with difficulties in learning.
Another target group inside the partnership were teachers of different ages and backgrounds: even the more reluctant to technologies were involved in the project activities and training.
Target groups at local level:
local schools, families and cultural institutions
public authorities
private actors and the citizenship in general. Coding is a good tool to tighten the realtionship between the school and the community, the school and the families. Everyone felt an active player and part of a network.
Target groups at regional/national level:
public authorities and cultural institutions
the Book in progress network in Italy and other national/regional networks in the participant’s countries (AeL, Microsoft community)
unions and the legislator, for their role in setting up coding-including programs.
Target groups at EU level:
etwinning platform to share the project results
EU forums, Euractives network
Creativity and Innovation
Critical thinking and problem solving
Digital competence
Agility, adaptability and capacity for lifelong learning
Teamwork and collaboration in virtual teams
Initiative, self direction and entrepreneurialism
Multiple languages and cultural awareness
NUMBER and type/profile of participants; Italy 1000
