Dear
colleagues, The Frederick University, in Cyprus, is looking for partners for the
submission of a project proposal under the Horizon
2020 programme: Call for making
science education and careers attractive for young people - Topic: Innovative ways to make
science education and scientific careers attractive to young
people-H2020-SEAC-2014-1 (http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/desktop/en/opportunities/h2020/topics/2423-seac-1-2014.html#tab1).
Robotics
in the classroom has taken a global momentum especially because of their
positive contributions in the teaching of science, technology, engineering and
mathematics (STEM). The project ‘Creative use of Robots in Education for Attracting sTudents
In Vision Experiential learning (C.R.E.A.T.I.V.E.) in STEM’ aims
at:
·
Attract
boys and girls in STEM through robotic activities
·
Develop
a robotic package (using materials that can be easily found in any DIY
store – off the shelve material) and a programming platform (user
friendly drag and drop programming environment)
·
Create
and test curricula for robotics as a subject matter for formal educational
settings (secondary school - Science courses) and for informal educational
settings (i.e. Robotics Academies, Technology Institutes and Camps)
·
Create
and test interdisciplinary curricula for primary school students (Mathematics,
Science and Design and Technology Courses)
·
Train
teachers on employing robotics as a subject matter and as a tool within the
teaching and learning process
·
Define
and test a comprehensive pedagogical theoretical methodological framework for
assessing the impact and benefits of learning with/through robotics.
·
Introduce
children in robotics exhibitions and competitions as a means to boost
their creativity and competiveness
Type of partners sought:
Universities (Educational Technology, Science Education, Mathematics Education,
Robotics and Computer Engineering), related Research and Educational
Units/Centres, Primary and Secondary Schools (Public and/or Private),
Ministries of Education, Association of Science Teachers, Technology Institutes
/ Camps / Clubs Deadline for proposal submission: 2 October 2014 Interested
parties are kindly invited to express their interest as soon as possible and no later than 30 August 2014
