Davos Codes celebrates 10 years by pairing first and third graders to design board games with Micro:bit coding and robotics. Students in Germany learn environmental science and English while teaching each other, with parents calling it a rare opportunity that goes beyond typical World Economic Forum activities.
IT being our tenth year of Davos Codes, We have extended the program and now we're really excited to be working with the students in the third grade of secondar. So we have the first grade real Schuler working with the third grade secondar Schuler on a creative collaborative project. They are developing board games that have environmental themes, but with a little bit more to them in that they have interactive elements. So they're using technology and coding within their games to add excitement and hopefully help people receive environmental messages in a playful way.
Das ich da klären ist vor allem Programmieren von den Microbits. Das kann man vielleicht irgendwann auch mal in der Zukunft gebrauchen und das ist eigentlich ziemlich lustig.
Wahrscheinlich programmiere ich selber, das sehr interessant ist. Ich habe lange nicht gewusst, wie Roboter funktionieren. Das habe ich sehr spannend gefunden zu lernen und jetzt, dass man es machen.
Kann, viele Sachen über Natur und über die global goals, die vorher einfach nicht gewusst haben.
Alles in allem sehr spannend gefunden, weil man viele Sachen gefunden hat, die man davor vielleicht noch nicht genau gewusst hat oder auch nicht so genau Angedanken gemacht hat. Und ich habe gefunden, dass das ganze Projekt auch zum Blick gebracht hat, weil man viele Sachen sehen, die man nicht erwartet hätte.
Ich will halt, wenn ich mal größer bin mit den kleinen Microbits mache und da ich jetzt mit der Salesforce die Woche schon Bits gelernt habe, weiß ich ja schon mehr, wie es funktioniert und könnte es besser benutzen, anstatt wenn ich es noch nie in meinem Leben gehabt hätte.
Parents that might not really know what the WAV is or might have a negative association with the WAF forced into this because their kids have it in school and then they see that there's more than just those five days of the WEF, they see that their kids are also getting something extra out of it. And that's the social aspect which I think is also very important. And a lot of people are also thankful that we have an opportunity that other places and other schools don't have, because they don't have Congress like the World Economic Forum.
Das Davos Code Programm hat unsere Kinder sehr positiv beeinflusst. Sie sind offener geworden, sie haben ihre Englischkenntnisse festigen, Sie sind auch mit sehr viel Freude ins Programm reingekommen.
Ich denke, my students learn a lot about patients how to explain how to organize, because some of the students of the first grade they need like a correct instruction what to do and that's something very good for my students in the third grade, but I think it's very good for both of them. They learn from each other.
We're really excited to celebrate ten years of Davos Codes. It represents an important decade of impact that we've made working with the local community beyond just our activity at the annual meeting in Davos. I think for us giving back is so core to the value and Dabos Codes is a program that does just that where we're bringing technology into the local school and teaching students how technology can be used for good.
