Meet the Drones

NOESIS regarding the conditions prevailing in the field of public health and as a non-formal education institution, takes into account both the instructions of EODY regarding the operation of museums, as well as the measures that are applied in the school halls, taking care of the educational actions to be carried out in accordance with the applicable instructions and circulars. Setting as his primary priority and main concern the safety and health of his young and old friends, executives and associates, he will define the framework for the implementation of his programs, calling on everyone to respect and implement it. The protection of the personal data of the participants will be strictly observed, as it is valid in all the programs of the institution.

Using special drones as an educational tool, children are trained to operate a drone, learn relevant concepts of physics and engineering and are introduced to programming. Cycles of 3 workshops, lasting 90 minutes, for students of elementary school - high school.

Level 1: We know about Drones and their applications
For students from elementary school to high school
Drones or in Greek "Unmanned Aircraft Systems" are one of the fastest growing industries. Their applications are many and constantly growing as they evolve. The educational program "Introduction to Drones 1 - Silver wings" is an innovative program, which is implemented for the first time in Greece. Using special drones as an educational tool, we teach basic skills and knowledge to children aged 10-13 (4th grade - 1st grade).
At the level of technical knowledge children:
• Learn concepts of physics and engineering, related to the flying ability of drones.
• They learn basic information about the legal framework, which governs the use of drones in Greece by the Civil Aviation Service.
• Learn how to operate a drone through a series of tests of accuracy, speed and dexterity.
• Learn to plan, design and execute a flight plan based on a scenario.

At the general skills level, the program focuses on the basic skills of the 21st century. Children learn how to communicate and collaborate in small groups to identify and solve problems. They are also encouraged to use the personal element of each team member, devising a solution different from those of other teams.
Of course, all of the above is based on one key pillar: the game. Drones are the right tool to give children all the above skills and knowledge, without having to teach them… as long as we play.

Strict order of priority will be observed in the departments of all levels as places are limited.
The organization of the content and the execution of the program is by Christos Liabas, Mechanical Engineer, Teacher of Robotics, new technologies and Drones.
* This program does not award a state-of-the-art drone diploma, but aims to inspire children to explore the magical world of technology, work as a team, collaborate and acquire basic 21st century skills.
