WHAT IS ICODEMY?

Icodemy is a sequenced methodology that structures the understanding of Computational Thinking and its applications, in order to help the children getting on in the technological environment of the 21st century.

CONVERGENT THINKING

We use logical reasoning to find the solution of a problem by following a systematic process based on the scientific method.

LATERALITY

We take different approaches in order to find the solution to a problem, breaking with the classical patterns of reasoning.

SEQUENCING

We arrange a series of events according to criteria to make a program work as planned.

COMPUTATIONAL LOGIC

We split up information, identify similarities connecting ideas, simplify and build generalized solutions.

ABSTRACTION

We simplify the elements of a problem in its essential parts, which allows us to model reality.

CRITICAL THINKING

We analyse the consistency of a reasoning accepted at first as true in order to deepen the knowledge.

CONDITIONALS

We introduce exceptions to a general rule to act differently and to achieve a more dynamic interaction.

DEPURATION

We identify and correct errors to optimize the operation of a previously defined model.

HEURISTIC

We solve problems more efficiently by looking for mental shortcuts that start from a reasoning by analogy.

WHY NOW?

The digital society in which we live demands us to know the language needed to communicate and interact with the machines. Otherwise we would have a formative disadvantage.

Labour erosion

Changing environment

Technological demythologization

Speed of progress

New Paradigms

Digital natives?

Fundamental skill

Digital literacy

Programmable environment

Knowledge of the environment

Curricular recognition

Digital divide

New education

Labour market

TECHNOLOGICAL SPEED

In the digital age, changes happen at dizzying speed, turning what was novelty yesterday into a commodity.

LABOUR IMPACT

The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence and robotics will have a radical impact on the labour world.

DIGITAL DIVIDE

The differences between those who are confident with new technologies and those who do not are growing more and more.

DIGITAL LITERACY

Young people should stop being simple passive users of content, to become proactive creators of their own technology.

NEW ABILITIES

Nowadays education must incorporate the key educational competencies that tomorrow's children will need in their daily environment.

DIGITAL NATIVES?

Children today are NOT more prepared for the use of technology because they belong to this new generation.

FUNDAMENTAL SKILL

Programming is considered by the OECD as one of the most important curricular skills and competences in the 21st century.

TECHNOLOGIC EDUCATION

The redefinition of educational processes supposes much more than filling the classrooms of screens, devices and digital blackboards.

CURRICULAR RECOGNITION

Computing is in many countries at the same level of other core curricular subjects.
