On March 19, the Eskoriatza campus will host a workshop to teach people about tools that support the development of computational thinking in Primary Education
Organized by the Faculty of Humanities and Education Sciences of Mondragon University, the workshop will present the didactic and pedagogical possibilities provided by electronic and digital devices aimed at Primary Education.
The use of electronic and digital devices in the field of education is becoming more and more frequent. In recent years, products for this field have multiplied and they have become another tool in educational processes. However, the use of these devices without specific didactic and pedagogical objectives carries the risk that these tools will become mere toys.
Therefore, the Faculty of Humanities and Education Sciences of Mondragon University has organized a workshop to teach people about the different tools that help develop computational thinking in Primary Education.
The workshop, which will take place on March 19 at 9:30 a.m., will allow people to test and try out different devices intended for use in Primary Education, and examples will be offered of their possible practical applications in Primary Education. Information will be provided about their relationship with the different areas of this educational stage and alternatives will be presented for working on the fundamentals of computational thinking.
The workshop will be held in the Dorleta building on the Eskoriatza campus on March 19. Interested parties will please register using the following link:
