Abstraction
Students learn to identify the relevant information in a situation or challenge, distinguishing between what is essential and what is incidental.
UN PROJECT DESIGNED BY Y FOR TEACHERS
SmartTEAM supports schools in developing computational thinking, robotics, programming and artificial intelligence. The programme is organised into books by year group, using a project-based learning approach, interactive platforms, robotics kits tailored to each stage, and teacher training throughout the year.
Our value proposition: what we offer and how we deliver it
Innovation and creativity that transform teaching
SmartTEAM promotes learning experiences through storytelling, integrating technology and robotics to enable students to experiment, create and collaborate in solving real-world challenges. The programme promotes teamwork, uses active and flexible teaching methods, and offers ongoing training for teachers, fostering a dynamic, personalised and motivating educational environment where pupils and teachers can develop their creative potential.
STEAM methodology and computational thinking
The STEAM approach, with a focus on educational robotics, promotes interdisciplinary and hands-on learning: pupils integrate science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics whilst designing, building and programming solutions to tackle real-world challenges. This approach fosters creativity, logical thinking and collaboration, and encourages students to apply knowledge from different subject areas in meaningful contexts.
Decomposition
The activities encourage pupils to break down a complex problem into smaller, more manageable parts. Through specific challenges, pupils learn to plan their steps and tasks.
Patterns
Pupils learn to recognise patterns and repetitions in actions and behaviour, linking what they have learnt in class to everyday situations.
Algorithm
Pupils construct ordered sequences of instructions to solve a problem or achieve a goal, whilst understanding how automated systems work.
PROPOSALS
EDUCATIONAL
BY LEVEL
TARGET AUDIENCES
EXECUTIVE MANAGEMENT

ADVANTAGES
YSELLING POINTS
Develop key skills for the 21st century
It fosters creativity, logical thinking, problem-solving and collaborative learning through STEAM projects involving robotics and programming, linked to specific classroom challenges.
It motivates and makes learning meaningful
Storytelling and Project-Based Learning provide a clear context for learning: each project is experienced as an adventure, and students get involved by creating, testing and refining solutions.
Empowers teachers and ensures continuity
This project has been designed by and for teachers: it includes teacher’s guides, supporting materials, assessment rubrics, ongoing training and support during and after implementation, making it easy for any motivated teacher to bring it into the classroom, even if they are not a specialist.
