The Power of a Scientific Education | Ludovic Ducobu And Patricia Corieri | TEDxYouth@EEB3
Patricia Corieri and Ludovic Ducobu, experts from the European Space Agency involved in ESERO, talk about their inspiring careers, and delve into how the implementation of a dynamic education in the sciences can enrich us all. Enjoy! L’espace, en tant que terrain d’apprentissage, offre un cadre unique pour éveiller la curiosité des élèves.Notre intervention présentera les projets éducatifs de l’Agence Spatiale Européenne (ESA), portés en Belgique par ESERO Belgium. Ces projets se distinguent par l’importance accordée aux concepts scientifiques et à la pratique.Dès la maternelle, les enfants s’entraînent comme des astronautes. À la fin du primaire et au début du secondaire, ils découvrent la programmation et envoient leur code à bord de la Station Spatiale Internationale. En fin de secondaire, les adolescents conçoivent leur propre mini-satellite pour un lancement réel. Ces projets abordent aussi des enjeux sociétaux, comme la conception de bases lunaires, soulevant des questions scientifiques, environnementales et sociales.L’espace devient ainsi un levier puissant pour inciter les jeunes à s’orienter vers les disciplines STEM en les transformant en acteurs du développement des connaissances scientifiques.
