2021Abstract
It is not necessary to change the teaching to the
taste of women, or any other group that is currently less
represented. This is mainly because the notion of a science for
under-represented women or minorities is meaningless and
unfounded. What we must be aware of is that there is great
potential in diversity. Cultural, social and gender diversity can
contribute greatly to the advancement of science, as the
interaction of different perspectives and practices are often
innovative ways of addressing problems. We must therefore
ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote
lifelong learning opportunities for all. We have worked with
educational robotics and STEAM, development of learning
environments and technological solutions oriented towards
collaborative and inclusive learning. For this purpose, costeffective solutions are used, which allow an adequate degree of
collaboration and encourage participation in a ubiquitous way.
Several tools have been identified that, following testing and
results, are suitable for use in diverse and inclusive
collaborative learning environments. Furthermore, it has been
demonstrated that technology is not the only factor that favors
diversity and inclusion. To promote diversity and inclusion, the
human factor is highly recommended, both from the trainer's
and the learner's point of view.
