论文摘要
今天迫切需要在儿童和青少年中灌输环境管理原则,以创造可持续的未来。本文介绍了一个模型,使用基于故事讲述的研讨会来促进印度的环境素养,同时着眼于STEM教育,包括计算思维,机器人技术和制造商技能。在研讨会期间,参与者建立了一个具有数字动画和动画的机器人西洋镜,以讲述他们的故事。我们对2019年在印度六所农村和半城市学校进行的试点研究的最初观察表明,在整个研讨会中,孩子们深深地敬业和热情,这使整个学习体验对所有人都非常有意义和快乐。
Inculcating principles of environmental stewardship among the children and youth is needed urgently today for creating a sustainable future. This paper presents a model for promoting environment literacy in India using story telling based workshops while focusing on STEM education including computational thinking, robotics and maker skills. During the workshop, participants build a robotic diorama with digital animations and animatronics to tell their story. Our initial observations from pilot studies conducted in 2019 in six rural and semi-urban schools in India showed us that the children were deeply engaged and enthusiastic throughout the workshop making the entire learning experience a very meaningful and joyful one for all.
