PROGRAMME – ERASMUS+

Workshop for Students

Robotics & Coding
WHAT are the workshops - The workshops for students are short practical courses (1 or 2
weeks) on different topics. Short mobilities of 1 or 2 weeks make impossible to do real and
effective internship in company while the workshops can provide a learning and practical
component to the mobility experience.

TARGET GROUP – They are aimed for those very short stays of students from VET and
Technical Education, but also to those students from School level.
A minimum of 10 participants is required, however we recommend that the groups is
composed of at least 16 participants, with a maximum of 20.

METHODOLOGY - Workshops are structured to be highly practical and, when possible, the
“lesson” will take place out of the classroom.
Participants will be encouraged to produce, in the different sections, a final product. Active
participation, motivation and group work will be required.
The language of the workshops is generally English, but they can also be provided in
Spanish.

DURATION - The workshops normally have a duration of 2 weeks with 10 working days. 50
hours of practical course are foreseen in total with the weekends free to do cultural
activities.
For shorter duration (1 week), please consult us and we will adapt the programme.

WHERE - The workshops are usually done in ESMOVIA premises (more than 300 squared
metres in the city centre of Valencia). ESMOVIA classrooms are equipped with video
projector, WIFI and MacBook laptops are provided when necessary.
In some lessons, the action could take place outside the classroom, interacting with locals,
exploring the environment, etc…
