38. According to research, young people from rural areas in
Poland have a limited access to computer science and they
also lack knowledge of possible career paths in the ICT
related professions.
Within the „Link to the Future” project we provide both:
inspirations on how to use the ICT in planning one’s own
professional future as well as the knowledge on practical
aspects of computer science.
Mariusz Boguszewski, project coordinator

39.  The EU-funded project (the European Social Fund),
 to support 10 local schools in the implementation
of tablets and coding activities,
 with the use of educational robots and Arduino
programming kits,
 60 ready-to-use-scenarios on the use of tablets
and robots,
 teachers' training,
 classes and extracurricular activities.
