Florent Girod

Florent uses the TI STEM Technology with pupils who are about 14 years old. They are 24 by group and follow 8 or 9 courses of 1h30; they have two or three sessions to finalize a project of their choice, in this STEM Lab.

See the videos of some projects:

I have several purposes in my Lab. Mainly I aim for students to:
- realize that technology is all around us, in a lot of everyday life objects
- learn a programming language
- apply algorithmic notions
- lead a project by working with other pupils

Lycée Condorcet Allée Condorcet 78520 LIMAY
Boris Hanus
Boris Hanus involves 3 classes in Seconde and 2 classes in Terminale, where he is teaching the subjects ICN and ISN. The students work in groups to solve problems, by using coding and math concepts to arrive to the solution. " TI Rover should detect an obstacle and approach it until he is 10 cm from it" or "Program a path to go in the fastest way possible from point A to point B" are examples of starting points for the groups to discuss and develop the skills they need while learning the basics of coding and algorithms.
“With this type of activities students are engaged quickly in the learning process and problem solving is acquired naturally and intuitively”

Jean-Louis Balas
Teaching in Lycée Professionnel, Jean-Louis Balas uses technology to solve real world problems connected with students realities and relevant for our community. "Our work is organized in groups where each works on a topic on a global project. We then put it all together providing the complete picture. A bit like we do in Industry"
TI Rover allows the creation of a conexion with real world and to make concrete conexions with algorithms. It allows to go beyond the curriculum and opens possibilities. It allows to make a connections with what happens in industrial robots, and that captivates students!
Lycée Descartes 1 Rue Lavoisier 92160 Antony
Vincent Bernigole
Vincent 's STEM Lab operates int he scope of ICN subject, in the 10th grade, where the students work in teams developing mini-projects, over a period of 8h. In Termnal S they develop mainly activities around robotics (mainly using TI Rover) over a period of 4 hours.
Our main goal is to develop student's autonomy while working with an complete and easy to use material.
