An experience of programming and robotics at the Omnia CC Sant Roc

The Point Òmnia- TIC Casal Cívic Sant Roc [5] on Friday, December 13, in collaboration with the Digital Inclusion and Training Service of the Digital Policy Secretariat, gave [6] a talk and practical training workshop in the field of programming and educational robotics for people in charge of social activism in Badalona.
The bitbot.cat [3] program of the Secretariat of Digital Policies, the Secretariat of Telecommunications, Cybersecurity and Digital Society of the Generalitat of Catalonia (in collaboration with the Department of Education) promotes extra-curricular educational activities and facilitated this formative action.
The Punt Òmnia- TIC Casal Cívic Sant Roc [5] welcomed this experience which was very positive. Some of the reasons are:
- The invigorating people could benefit from the opportunity to receive innovative training that was needed and demanded. They always needed it and look forward to it.
- The monitors and users of the organizations SMBN Association [7] (Mental Health Barcelonès Nord), the Siklavipen Savorença project of the private foundation Pere Closa [8] discovered the educational applications of programming and robotics, and their potential.
- Users with functional diversity and at risk of social and digital exclusion were pleasantly trained in the educational use of programming and robotics , through the creation of simple programs such as Scratch and robot manipulation.
- The entities and users, such as the telecentre invigorator, thanked the trainers for the direction of the workshop by the trainer David of the ICOFAM [9] training company [9] . It was decided to repeat this experience soon.
Due to all this, it is interesting to amplify these talks and training activities to disseminate the potential of these innovative tools to a large number of telecenters, as the Points and the energizers are agents of digital and social transformation.
