Creations, ODS, Robots and STEAM Education in the final works of the subject 4.2 of the Master of Teacher Training
Making rigorous, fun, interactive, creative final works in the format of a scientific-technological fair was a milestone, and successfully achieved in the last session of subject 4.2. Subject 4.2 of the Master's Degree in Secondary Technology Teacher Training (check for more information here: https://www.blanquerna.edu/ca/master-universitari-professorat-educacio-secundaria) taught between La Salle Campus Barcelona (URL) and Blanquerna (URL), called "Complementary and advanced curricular contents", focuses on Educational Robotics, with a important focus on the vision of technology learning in a creative, holistic and social way.
Seeing the synthesis of the subject materialized in a successful final work never ceases to amaze the teachers positively. The final works more than reached the initially planned standards and the students showed a high interest in educational technology projects. After 8 sessions of 3 hours of introduction to tools such as Scratch, Lego Mindstorms, Arduino and Micro: bit, students designed and implemented teaching units deepening with one of the random tools, with a random heterogeneous group , with a school of socio-economic context and Sustainable Development Goal also at random. The presentations avoided the format of the presentation made in other years and a greater interconnection between students was sought, presenting the works as if it were a scientific-technological fair.
As teachers, we feel full satisfaction and deep confidence in a future high school teacher.
