The work of ROBOTICS WITH SCRAP was developed and structured to transform the lives of children and young people from the outskirts of São Paulo. It brings to the stage the construction of recycled garbage utensils (electronic and scrap), taken from the streets, as a way to mediate the construction of knowledge and curriculum content, associated with the teaching of computational thinking, electronics, programming language and robotics. The project has worked directly to transform the lives of young people and children in the public school community and is organized to mobilize a formative pedagogical practice that encourages students to learn through their creativity and inventiveness, stimulating the experimentation of ideas, exploration of research and exercise of scientific thinking to propose local solutions to the community. The work is self-sustainable through partnerships with recycling companies to commercialize materials that were not used at work, acting in environmental education, and allowing youth protagonism that seeks a solution for the development of school activities and generation of resources for the acquisition of components. electronics. Another solution that stands out is the recycling made by garbage collection from São Paulo that give rise to the construction of robots and electronics materials. The work became nationally and internationally recognized, breaking the paradigm of robotics teaching in Brazil by associating low-resource materials for the construction of prototypes. The work is currently a public policy in the state of São Paulo and is expanding in Argentina, the United States, London and France.
