Ubuntu Portugal Podcast: Episode 368 - Ensino de TIC, com Artur Coelho

“Desta feita, raptámos…errr…recebemos um convidado muito especial: Artur Coelho. Professor de TIC, formador, apaixonado pela educação e criatividade com robótica, IA, 3D e programação de software, mantém uma visão crítica, actual e informada sobre o ensino das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC) nas escolas portuguesas - onde foi pioneiro na introdução de diversas tecnologias e construiu um percurso invejável, influenciando positivamente um grande número de alunos e professores. A conversa foi tão longa e interessante que vamos tentar rapt…convidá-lo outra vez no futuro.”
