Today, as part of the Vagone FMD. Da 01 a 100 Programme at Binario F, a five-part experimental course begins for kindergarten teachers, educators and children based on three innovative pedagogic practices: tinkering, coding and making.
The labs, which are described in the "Immaginare, crescere, sviluppare" (Imagine, Grow, Develop) series designed by the Fondazione Mondo Digitale with Erickson, will involve participants in a series of modular activities for custom-tailoring education.
The objectives of the experimental course include:
- Mapping competences and abilities developed at kindergarten
- Developing a new model of pedagogic design thinking
- Studying the impact of classroom activities on students

AGENDA
3.00 | REGISTRATION AND WELCOME
3.10 | LAB ON TINKERING AND CODING
- Federica Pellegrini, Fondazione Mondo Digitale Coach
- Ilaria Gaudiello, Editorial and Educational Projects Manager, Fondazione Mondo Digitale
- Cristiana Zambon, Primary School Teacher
"Steam Flipper": unplugged tinkering lab. Space, time, friction and other fascinating physical concepts take form thanks the reuse of waste materials. The objective is to introduce the study of STEAM subjects, training the mind to scientific thought, problem solving and creativity.
"Bee Escape": coding lab with Bee-bot. A didactic labyrinth and a robotic been introduce participants to programming. The objective is to introduce the basics of robotics and train participants to computational thought, problem solving and collaborative work.
