Irradiando Conhecimento

Creative and interactive education for children, strengthening the foundation that facilitates the teaching and learning processes

Irradiar arose from a political-pedagogical proposal to see Brazilian Education methodologies transformed and accessible to all. The focus of the organization is to work in a process of continual discovery and build knowledge through creative and experimental stimulation. The organization seeks to improve children’s cognitive performances by constructing a complete methodology, based on creative education.

The project trains 20 children through complementary education, offering extended learning and robotics workshops to improve cognitive and academic performance; and that act as the basis of knowledge acquisition, surpassing the expectations of traditional school reinforcement.

With support from BrazilFoundation, the Association proposes to:

• Conduct pedagogical research and improve Irradiar’s methodology;
• Hold extended learning and robotics workshops;
• Improve and construct didactic games aligned with the pedagogical goals of the Institution;
• Train volunteers to replicate the methodology.
