What is the place of literature in a world where culture and entertainment are dominated by streaming, social media and artificial intelligence? Is it an outdated form? Have we no time for reading for pleasure? And if we believe in the value of literature, how can we make it relevant to our students?
This session opens questions for debate which are related to our role as educators and adult readers. Although we may find no definitive answers, thinking together can provide support and open new roads for experimentation.

Las nuevas tecnologías y su evolución han colaborado a que cada vez más adolescentes y jóvenes sean víctimas de ciberdelitos a través de redes sociales o de Internet como por ejemplo grooming, sexting, abusos, amenazas, difusión de imágenes íntimas, etc. Para evitarlo, es fundamental que como docentes nos informemos y formemos para conocer los riesgos y peligros, y así acompañar a nuestros alumnos y alumnas para navegar tranquilos y libremente, aunque con toda la información necesaria para fomentar la prevención de estos delitos.

In this session, we will explore the fundamental principles of computational thinking and how they are closely tied to literacy skills in young learners. Through hands-on activities and interactive discussions, we will examine how coding and computational thinking can enhance problem-solving, logical reasoning, and communication skills. Participants will discover how these concepts are already part of our daily routines at schools, which will empower teachers to introduce coding concepts to young learners in a fun and engaging way. By the end of the session, educators will have gained practical strategies for integrating computational thinking into literacy activities, and they will have a better understanding of how these concepts can support the development of critical thinking skills in young learners.
