We have very active and creative students. The aims of our school are the following: First, to prepare pupils in order to be admitted to High school. Second, to offer intercultural education teaching cooperation and tolerance between people of different cultures and origin. The pupils of our school could be characterised as participants with specific needs for multiple reasons. Our school’s population consists of minority groups of student with learning and behavioural deficits and also many talented students. For our future this project will be a perfect opportunity to develop students specific skills. There is a special kind of robots, the so-called Lego robots, which are well adjusted to children’s developing level.
There are cars and other shapes, made of bricks, moving by the previously made program. The programming is also similar to assembly of bricks. To children, Lego robots represent an interesting way of familiarization with the making of technical elements, as well as with the simple programming. Key persons are Oliver Buček, teacher of ICT, and Tadej Trstenjak.
