About the event

​

Maximum number of participants: 15

The participation costs € 200.

State: 18 years

 

Why this project?

 

The majority of children in Ouarzazate they not have access to computers in their homes, as they are very expensive for families and they do not need it.

 

These children have to pay in a cyber to be able to use a computer and in that space they are not educated for the correct use of computers or they are not taught on how to use certain programs in an educational or formative way, such as text processors.

 

From our association we want to give some guidelines and advice to these children so that they know better the correct way to use a computer and teach them to use basic programs that they may need in the future, for university or for work.

 

You can also show games for children and perform activities interactively.

​

​

Methodology:

​

There will be a coordinator with computer skills in charge of the project to help the volunteers to carry out the different activities.

 

There is an educational plan on computer science made by the association where the basic guidelines to be taught are specified and where programs, activities and games are recommended to share with the children.

 

We will also teach how to do basic work or class documents for high school children and other more complex ones for the older ones.

​

 

There will be groups of few children to work more comfortably, and each volunteer will work with a computer and a group of children. First the theory will be explained to the children and then put into practice in turns (due to the scarcity of computers available) so that all children can practice and learn.

​

Participation requirements:

​

Any person over 18 who has the motivation and desire to teach and collaborate can participate in the project. It is not necessary to have computer knowledge since the activities we will do are very basic and we have an educational plan for the project.
