American countries have focused their efforts on incorporating new technologies into their educational programs. Projects such as the “Plan ” in Uruguay, “” in Argentina, “One laptop per student” in Peru or “Digital skills for all” in Mexico, are a good example. , around the world, institutions and technology giants are also developing applications and programs that make science a real game for children (and also for some adults). Below, we present some of them . 1. 'Science Journal': Google's scientific notebook google: Science copyright Image caption Just a few days ago, Google launched this application that consists of a laboratory notebook. This application, which Google launched just a few weeks ago, wants children to learn to think as if they were scientists. It is a digital notebook that allows you to do "experiments", measuring and exploring all types of variables through a smart cell phone.
The goal Google said on its blog, is to "reveal the scientist within all of us." "You can use the America Mobile Number List cell phone's sensors or connect it to external sensors to do experiments with the world around you," the company explained on the Google Play Store, the website where the application can be downloaded. «Organize your ideas into projects, make predictions about what will happen, take notes and collect data from various trials. Write down the results and observe them. « Science l is the laboratory notebook that you always carry with you Space Place': Learn about space with NASA copyright NASA Image caption Thanks to this NASA application, children can learn about space and astronomy while having fun. The American space agency (NASA) has an application for children to learn about space and astronomy in an entertaining and fun way. The platform, Space Place , is available in Spanish and contains a large number of audiovisual tools, games, activities and "crafts" that allow you to build topographic maps or edible asteroids, among many other things.
Information about phenomena such as dark matter, eclipses, hurricanes and data about Earth and other planets in our solar system. 3. 'NOVA': UNESCO's children's scientific magazine Image caption It is a place to "have fun and learn", says . The children's scientific magazine NOVA is a project run by the Costa Rican Commission for cooperation with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization . This is an audiovisual project that includes stories, games and other teaching resources to learn science in a playful way. The articles are aimed at children between 9 and 15 years old. The magazine has indexes such as health or environmental education, among others. It is, according to its creators, "a place to have fun and learn." The main objective is "to entertain children and young people while they learn about natural sciences, mathematics, technology and social sciences." 4. 'EAFIT': the children's university copyright EAFIT Image caption Children also participate in this university. This project was born more than 10 years ago in Colombia, inspired by a publication from the University of Tübingen in Germany in which eight Nobel Prize winners answered questions from several children.
