Córdoba integrates robotics and programming into schools during the 2026 school year

Educational institutions in Córdoba will incorporate new digital tools to prepare students in computer science. The action plan for this year focuses on renewing technological infrastructure and optimizing connectivity in schools. This initiative allows students to access modern resources to develop technical skills that are essential in the current job market.

The project includes the distribution of laptops and robotics equipment designed to solve complex real-world problems. Students will be able to design creative solutions by integrating knowledge from various areas through a pedagogical approach based on innovation. With these tools, the aim is for learning to transcend theory and become a practical and transformative experience for everyone.

Gabriel Scarano, Director of Technology in Education, emphasized the relevance of this framework for the development of modern digital citizenship. “In order to train citizens who are capable of understanding, analyzing, and transforming their environment, it is essential to provide schools with infrastructure, but also to strengthen teachers. TecnoPresente provides technical and pedagogical tools that make it possible to innovate in teaching with and about technology throughout the province.” Teacher training is an essential pillar to ensure that the new devices are used efficiently.

Innovation and training in new technologies

Generative artificial intelligence is added as a central axis of the curriculum to encourage critical analysis of emerging technologies. Specific guides have been developed to guide teachers in the responsible and educational use of these algorithms in the classroom. The objective is for young people to understand how digital systems work so that they can use them as allies in their education.

Through a virtual platform, teachers will access a selection of digital tools for planning their study days. This digital space offers teaching proposals that are adapted to the current challenges of technological education and basic systems programming. The availability of these online resources facilitates the constant updating of the content that is taught at the different educational levels.

The Minister of Education of Córdoba, Horacio Ferreyra, stated that "the school is currently permeated by the constant presence of digital technology." This institutional advance seeks to provide greater opportunities for individual progress for students who go through the provincial educational system.
