Short description:

ICE Robotcs aims to promote inclusive, high-quality STEM education with a focus on the integration of new technologies, in particular the application and use of educational robots and artificial intelligence (AI).
On the one hand, pupils at higher secondary level are inspired for the field of programming and the future topics of the digital working world by means of targeted project activities and, on the other hand, teachers are supported in the integration of robotics and AI in everyday school life by means of specially developed methods and materials.
Through the cross-border educational activities and structured knowledge transfer, ICE Robotics can expand the subject-specific educational exchange between Vienna and Bratislava and make a positive contribution to the current shortage of IT specialists in the long term.

Offers & activities for Viennese schools (upper secondary):

• 3 ToT trainings for teachers with a focus on current IT topics
  (e.g. AI, 3D-printing, etc.) and the integration of robotic systems in the
  knowledge transfer in the classroom
  
• Equipment for pilot schools: 90 robotics-sets and 18 3D-printers
• 6 Boot camps for pupils to strengthen soft skills
  problem-solving skills, communication and teamwork skills, design thinking and
  creativity
