Sustainable development goals

Abstract

The rapid technological-industrial development, has highlighted the need for a technological literacy that allows people to understand, manipulate, and develop physical or digital creations. This work introduces a training proposal made with different groups at the fabrication laboratory Kä Träre of the UNED of Costa Rica. Ten training workshops were held on the use of open technologies, with a total of 106 inexperienced participants. In all of them, a constructionist methodological proposal linked to the manifesto makers was followed. For the evaluation of the impact of the workshops, a semantic analysis of a open question was used, which was given at the end of each workshop. The results show that more than 70% of the participants were able to imagine new applications adapted to their environment of interest, using the open technologies learned in the workshops. However, only 32% indicated how the proposal would be developed. Considering that each group participated in only one workshop, we considered that the training model is valid, but we noted the need for other deeper workshops to address the developments proposed by the participants. This type of proposal could not only be extended to educational centres, but could also be developed in non-formal educational environments, facilitating the technological empowerment of people who are no longer of school age.
