Abstract
STEM es una de las opciones que los estudiantes de ICAI pueden elegir para realizar su experiencia en APS. Esta actividad se viene realizando desde el curso 16-17, aunque ha sido desde el curso 18-19 cuando se ha considerado como una parte del Diploma de Habilidades Personales, Comunicativas y Profesionales. Dentro de esta experiencia se engloban distintas actividades: (a) Talleres de Robótica en Colegio San Alfonso de Lavapiés a los estudiantes de 6º de primaria; (b) Talleres de Diseño de videojuegos, Robótica y Energías Renovables para estudiantes de 1º y 2º del Programa TecnoDemos de Comillas para personas con discapacidad intelectual; (c) Clases de apoyo a estudiantes de Bachillerato en Física y Química y Matemáticas para jóvenes sin recursos del Centro La Inmaculada Marillac y Ayuda para hacer los deberes y (d) Talleres de Robótica para niños y jóvenes de 6 a 16 años de la Asociación Línea 10 en Usera.La mayor parte de las actividades implican 8 o 9 sesiones semanales de 2 horas durante un semestre (más las preparaciones previas). En estos cinco cursos académicos, 169 estudiantes de ICAI han realizado su actividad de APS en Educación STEM, con una valoración de la experiencia de 4 a 5 (sobre 5) en un 80 de los estudiantes que contestaron a la encuesta anónima y un 94 considera que ha merecido la pena (aunque antes de comenzar la experiencia, su valoración fue entre 1 y 3 en un 55 de las respuestas). Para los más de 770 niños, niñas y jóvenes que han recibido el apoyo de nuestros alumnos, ha sido una experiencia excelente.
STEM Education is one of the choices available to ICAI students seeking to enrich their APS experiences. This initiative has been in operation since the 2016-17 academic year, although it officially became part of the Personal, Communication, and Professional Skills Diploma from the 2018-19 academic year onwards. Within this multifaceted experience, an array of activities unfolds: (a)Robotics Workshops at San Alfonso de Lavapiés School for 6th-grade students; (b) Workshops covering Game Design, Robotics, and Renewable Energy tailored for 1st and 2nd-year students within Comillas’ TecnoDemos Program, which caters to individuals with intellectual disabilities; (c) Support classes for high school students in Physics,Chemistry, and Mathematics, especially those from less privileged backgrounds, at the La Inmaculada Marillac Center; (d) Homework assistance and Robotics Workshops designed for children and young people aged 6 to 16, hosted by the Línea 10 Association in Usera.The majority of these activities entail 8 or 9 weekly sessions, each lasting 2 hours, spanning a single semester, in addition to prior preparations. Over the past five academic years, 169 ICAI students have actively participated in STEM Education APS activities. Impressively, 80 of these students who anonymously responded to the survey evaluated their experience with a rating of 4 to 5 (out of 5). Moreover, a remarkable 94 of them found the experience to be highly worthwhile—this is especially notable given that, prior to commencing the experience, 55 of respondents rated it between 1 and 3.For the more than 770 boys, girls, and young people who have received support from our students, it has proven to be an exceptional experience.
