Education is a commitment of the whole society and with that vision, Paraguay Educa, through its META portal, organizes META Innova. It is the first international seminar in which the educational community, together with representatives of civil society and the Government, will be able to share and analyze innovative practices and proposals, generating a space for construction and co-creation with the collaboration of national and international leaders in the field. . Registrations are free.
On Thursday, May 5, the first edition of the seminar will take place. People interested in participating can register for free on the META Portal, who can sign up in either of the two modalities: face-to-face or virtual. Each of them has a special form to collect data and reserve a place at the event, which will be held at the Mariscal Convention Center, from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and which will issue certificates of participation.
In this meeting of a technical and academic nature, the latest trends in the implementation of Information Technology (ICT) in education will be presented. It is aimed at representatives of civil society and the Government, and, above all, at the educational community made up of teachers, directors and students of Middle School Education. It plans to convene around 300 people in person and another 700 online to collaborate in this space for construction and co-creation.
One of the proposals of Paraguay Educa with this seminar is to face the challenge of technological evolution with the rapid adaptation to changes, starting from a deep analysis of experiences and strategies that guide the path of learning, with emphasis on the axes of the event : the development of computational thinking, digital citizenship and socio-emotional skills.
With the collaboration of leading professionals from Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Colombia and Spain, this meeting seeks to generate a space for development of innovative educational proposals for society by sharing experiences from various regions and contexts of the world. It also aims to promote the analysis and retrospection of educational practices of the past with a view to the school future of the future, and to systematize good practices that promote the development of skills, keeping the student at the center of the learning process.
META Innova participants will find a packed agenda that includes panels with experts, talks and conferences on topics such as “The Evolution of the vision of ICT in Paraguay”, “Professional leadership of teachers” and “Elements of digital citizenship in education”.
