Nowadays, algorithms should be a fundamental part of the digital educational world, since they are part of our daily life, even though we often do not see them. That’s why, Guillermo Cánovas, renowned teacher and expert on teenagers, has visited our school in Boadilla del Monte to give a very special talk to primary and secondary students about the impact of algorithms and artificial intelligence in their daily lives.
UNDERSTANDING ALGORITHMS IN THE DIGITAL EDUCATIONAL WORLD: ALGORITHMIC LITERACY DAY AT CASVI BOADILLA
During the talk, our students learned how algorithms are present in every aspect of their lives, from social networks to personalized search engine recommendations. Cánovas has explained how artificial intelligence is behind these technologies, influencing their digital decisions and behaviors, and how a proper understanding of these processes is essential for effective digital literacy.
This type of activities in our school in Boadilla del Monte are essential to have a training in the digital educational world, which prepares our students for the challenges of the future.
THE DIGITAL FUTURE OF OUR STUDENTS
In our center, both as an elementary school and as a secondary school in Boadilla, we are committed to train our students not only in classical knowledge, but also in digital skills that will be essential in their personal and professional lives. Algorithmic literacy is one of the foundations of our innovative education, which seeks to provide students with the necessary tools to understand the digital world around them.
During the presentation, primary< > and secondary school students have actively participated and reflected on how they can make informed decisions when interacting with technology, preparing them to be responsible and critical digital citizens.
