RESPONSIBLE ALGORITHMS. Institut Milà i Fontanals, Barcelona

Support to the philosophy course in high school (1r batxillerat) at the Institut Milà i Fontanals in Barcelona. The objective is to support the critical analysis by the 50 students of the implications of AI design and use.

It consists of the participation in two classes previous and post to their attendance to the lecture by Louise Amoore at the Center for Contemporary Culture of Barcelona (CCCCB), in the framework of their AI exhibition, where DTIC-UPF also contributes.

MAKERS A LES AULES

The program was born with the aim of training primary school teachers and their students through the knowledge and skills derived from introducing new technologies in education. Informal learning is promoted through various activities and through the use of cutting-edge technologies. It is a program developed by researchers from the Department of Information and Communication Technologies at Pompeu Fabra University with the intention of breaking stereotypes, and with special emphasis on the gender perspective.
