As part of the CoTEDI project, we also carry out diverse dissemination and awareness-raising actions that fall outside the scope of classroom-based activities or formal training. These include one-off school visits to give talks on computational thinking, presentations in teacher conferences, contributions to educational fairs, or public demonstrations of our resources. Although these sessions are usually shorter and less structured, they play a key role in spreading the project’s vision, connecting with broader audiences, and generating interest among educators, researchers, and the general public.
