Robótica pedagógica livre: uma possibilidade para o desenvolvimento do letramento científico e digital

Abstract

This article aims to understand how Free Pedagogical Robotics, from the construction of cognitive artifacts, can assist Scientific Literacy and Digital Literacy. The text is divided into four parts: Introduction, From Literacy and Literacy to Scientific Literacy and Digital Literacy, Free Pedagogical Robotics Activities and Scientific Literacy and Digital Literacy and Final Considerations. The methodology used was a qualitative approach using the participant observation technique. In the conclusion, we emphasize that it is not enough to give access to the computer, the cell phone, the tablet, among others, it is necessary that in addition to access, the students involved in this process, learn other resources that these technological artifacts can offer – such as, for example, solving problems with some kind of algorithm provided by an application, using some programming language or building a robotic device; the knowledge generated from information about the development, uses and applications of technological, robotic and cognitive artifacts built in RPL activities, are immersed in the processes of LC and LD and can assist in learning.
