Remembering the project:
The program aims to combat digital illiteracy, dropout rates and lack of interest in school, inspiring vocations and bringing opportunities to talented students in the area of Robotics and Programming. The project also focuses on a work culture of social values and skills, bringing opportunities to young people and children with high skills, but in situations of social vulnerability and difficult access to Science and Technology.
In recent months, the project's students had an immersive and enriching experience by participating in several lectures and technology exhibitions, which covered the latest innovations and trends in the sector. Furthermore, they had the opportunity to visit research centers, where they were able to improve their knowledge in areas such as artificial intelligence, robotics and data science. During these visits, students interacted directly with researchers and professionals in the technology field, which allowed for a valuable exchange of experiences and the expansion of their professional contact networks.
Additionally, they participated in the Advanced School of Technology week, a week-long national event that brings together students from different regions of Brazil. At this event, students had the chance to get involved in a series of activities focused on the areas of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics), such as practical workshops and technological challenges. In addition, they attended lectures given by recognized experts in the sector, covering topics such as innovation, technological entrepreneurship and the future of technological professions.
Participation in this event provided a fertile environment for the exchange of knowledge between students, teachers and professionals, encouraging discussions about new projects, partnerships and career opportunities. This meeting contributed significantly to the formation of a broader vision of the field of activity, in addition to stimulating network collaboration and the development of essential skills for success in an increasingly dynamic and competitive job market.
