Technikoludek-
a child in the world of technology.
nationwide educational project 4th edition
Modern
technologies are the integral part of our lives. The world is changing all the
time. It is moving forward and developing rapidly. Technological progress should
help us in everyday life. However, very often this isn’t the case. Children are
being constantly overwhelmed with tablets, smartphones, gaming consoles.
Nevertheless, we can’t give up on using technology entirely and introducing
children to the world of technology. The ability of using multimedia tools may
be one of the ways of acquiring knowledge and new skills. Educational project
‘Technikoludek- a child in the world of technology’ is the continuation of the
project which started in 2020 in order to shape pro-health attitude, care about
spending time with family, make children sensitive to beauty of the surronding
world and care about safety and responsibility among the youngest. All of this
we want to do with the use of modern technology.

NASI PATRONI / OUR PATRONITE

The first day in the kindergarten
by Aleksandra Mazur
It was a beautiful morning. The sun was sending its rays brightening and warming the Earth. It was the first time, when Technikoludek was about to go on a meeting with his friends, who had been writing letters, sending e-mails, photos and cheerful songs. He was really looking forward to meet them. He quickly checked if his batteries were fully charged, straightened up his antennae, cleaned and oiled his hinges and hit the road. When he was approaching the kindergarten, suddenly he heard a strange noise. He searched his memory and found what the noise was.
‘It’s laugh! How beautiful it sounds- the robot cried, astonished and delighted at the same time.
He sped up in order to get to the kindergarten classroom as fast as possible. When he stood by the door he heard a familiar melody: kids were laughing and singing Technikoludek’s anthem. All of Technikoludek’s lights flashed in different colours out of joy. He opened the door and came inside. That what he saw far exceeded his expectations.
‘Hello dear friend. Good to see you!’ children welcomed him.
‘Good morning my friends! It so beautifully in here. There are so many things I have never seen before! What is this thing for example?’ He asked pointing a large green object hanging on the wall.
‘It’s a blackboard.’ replied children. ‘It is used to write some information. The teacher, using the board, shows us how to write letters, how different geometric shapes look like or how to solve a task.
‘Aaaah, I get it. I use a screen to do that. You can move around the screen by touching it or using a special mouse- but not the live mouse, of course- Technikoludek laughed. ‘There are also different pieces of information appearing on the screen.’
‘And what about those colourful beads and boards?’ he pointed with his finger.
‘They are called abacuses or counting frames. They help us understand numbers and anything what we can do with them. It’s great fun!
‘I see. I have something like that too. It is a calculator. It also helps to do mathematical operations on numbers. And I will tell you a secret: it always gives a correct answear. It is never wrong, but shush..’ said Technikoludek and put his finger on his mouth.
‘Look what we have here.’ the children shouted pointing an interesting, round object.
‘What is that?’ asked Technikoludek quite curious.
‘It’s a globe.’ the children answered. ‘Thanks to it we can visit every part of our planet without even going outside the classroom.
‘Wow, it’s really amazing! I have something similar too. I have maps saved in my memory. I can show them on the screen. Thanks to them you can be in any possible place. You can even stand there and look around.’ The children watched in awe and started to clap their hands and cheered.
‘And over there, on that shelf? Such colourful..?’
‘They are books. Our teacher reads them to us. All the knowledge is hidden inside them. Every book tells about something different.’
‘It’s really interesting. I also have some ways to find out any interesting things. In order to to that I use a huge net which connects the whole world. It is called the internet. One should use it wisely. You can find plenty of information there, however not all of it is good and useful.
Our adventure is really wonderful, but you know what? I got a bit tired now.’
‘It’s just as well.’ said the children. ‘Because now it’ s time for something we like very much.’
‘ Oh, and what is that?’ Technikoludek asked.
‘Lunch break!’ cheerfully yelled the children altogether. Technikoludek smiled at them and said
‘I don’t eat lunch but I would like to charge my batteries instead. And we can play again after that. I am staying with you, guys. It is amazing that we can act and work together. Science and technology can complement each other. That’s fascinating!
‘Hurray, Technikoludek is staying with us! An amazing adventure is about to begin!
