Within the framework of the European Robotics Week, the Cyprus Computer Society (CCS) collaborates with the Paradox Museum Limassol and presents to our little Paradoxers the event Coding our Future.

The aim of the event is to offer children the opportunity to get to know, in an interactive and creative way, the world of programming and educational robotics, under the guidance of the Coding Our Future team of CCS.

What to expect:
The event includes 4 consecutive activities (stations), each lasting 30 minutes.
Each activity is addressed to groups of 8 children (3rd to 6th Grade of Primary School).

The little explorers will:
- Make music with fruits and computers
With the help of Makey Makey devices, computers and simple materials, children will create their own music.
- Drive robots on a track
With tablets they will guide Makeblock robotic vehicles through obstacle courses.
- Create with Micro:bit
Introduction to programming through the Micro:bit microcontroller, ideal for creative and technological projects.
- Discover new technological experiences
Parallel activities with innovative devices and robots: robotic hand that draws, VR glasses etc.

About CCS

The Cyprus Computer Society (CCS) is a scientific, professional, independent and non-profit organisation, which systematically serves the field of Information and Communication Technologies in Cyprus. The Society cultivates high professional standards, recognising the decisive role of informatics in employment, business, society and in improving the quality of life of citizens.

In collaboration with public and private bodies, and with the valuable contribution of volunteers, CCS organises every year a wide range of actions, competitions, professional events and educational programmes, addressed to pupils, students, young professionals, entrepreneurs, academics, educators, unemployed as well as vulnerable social groups.

Recognising the global gap between supply and demand for talents in the ICT sector, CCS has prioritised youth – both to attract them to IT professions and to strengthen their digital skills, which are essential for success in an ever-changing digital world.

With the approval of the Ministry of Education, Sport and Youth, CCS has been organising since 1989 annual youth activities, educational programmes and student competitions, such as the Cyprus Olympiad in Informatics, the Bebras Computational Thinking Competition and the Cyprus Cybersecurity Competition CCSC. It is important to note that the winners of the national competitions each year represent Cyprus in corresponding international competitions, often returning with medals and international distinctions. Also recognising the importance of educational robotics in attracting students to STEM sciences from an early age, CCS organises four major robotics competitions: Robotex, FIRST® LEGO® League, MRC & WRO.

About CODING OUR FUTURE

Coding Our Future (COF) started in 2016 as a voluntary initiative of individuals and organisations with a common goal of promoting IT and programming skills for students, teachers and parents. Within the framework of the programme, events, seminars and workshops are organised to promote and develop computational thinking and problem-solving skills through programming, robotics and technology.

The main action of COF is the free seminars offered during official school time with the approval of the Ministry of Education, Sport and Youth. The programme’s instructors visit schools of all levels – from pre-primary to secondary education – upon booking through the website codingourfuture.org

Since 2016, more than 15,000 students have attended lessons in coding, robotics and even astronomy through the COF programme.
