About the unit

About My Robot Barra da Tijuca

My Robot Barra da Tijuca is a unit of My Robot School dedicated to robotics, programming, artificial intelligence and maker culture for children and teenagers.

The proposal is simple: exchange the passive use of technology for practical creation, logical reasoning, autonomy, collaboration and trust to solve problems.

My Robot Barra da Tijuca environment
Our essence

What we do in practice

Students learn by building, testing and improving projects with close monitoring and clear objectives.

Learn by doing

The student manipulates materials, tests ideas, observes results and understands why each adjustment improves the project.

Method with sequence

Classes connect concept, assembly, programming, testing, organization and continuity at home.

Integral development

In addition to technique, we work on communication, collaboration, persistence, organization and confidence to present ideas.

Repertoire for the future

Robotics, programming, AI and maker culture help students understand technology and create with more autonomy.

Why just teach, when you can show?

When the student builds, tests and improves something real, technology stops being abstract.

Global presence

From South Korea to Barra da Tijuca

My Robot School was born in South Korea in 2008 and today has more than 1,500 units in more than 16 countries. In Brasil, there are more than 40 My Robot units.

At Barra da Tijuca, this international methodology gains close monitoring, an organized routine and adaptation to the profile of families and students in the region.

Own kits and updated content

My Robot makes its own robotics kits. This makes it easier to update content, maintains international standards and allows the material to be adapted to the reality of each country.

Methodology
  • InteractionInitial connection, bond with the class and curiosity about the topic.
  • ConceptAccessible theoretical basis to understand the challenge of the class.
  • ProjectAssembly, programming, organization of ideas and problem solving.
  • RehearsalTesting, failures, adjustments and continuous improvement of what was created.
  • OrganizationBe careful with materials, kits, process and responsibility.
  • HomeworkContinuity of learning, commitment and new possibilities.
How we teach

From curiosity to confidence

The My Robot methodology gives predictability to the student and security to the family: the class begins with connection and concept, goes through project and testing, ends with organization and continuity.

This cycle helps the child transform curiosity into confidence, without relying solely on abstract explanations.

Learning

What each class develops

The proposal combines STEM, maker culture and socio-emotional skills in practical activities.

Pedagogical basis

Inspired by Piaget and Vygotsky, learning values exploration, instructor mediation, interaction between students and active construction of knowledge.

STEAM and maker culture

Science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics appear in projects that combine creativity, manual construction and practical application.

Computational thinking

The student learns to decompose problems, recognize patterns, organize steps, create logical sequences and propose useful solutions.

Life skills

Classes strengthen communication, empathy, collaboration, focus, autonomy, resilience, creativity and responsibility.

  • Programming logic, robotics, electronics, automation and engineering
  • Computational thinking, technology and project presentation
  • Motor coordination, observation, focus and organization
  • Empathy, communication, teamwork and leadership
  • Autonomy, resilience, creativity and protagonism
  • Individualized learning pace
  • Concrete, visual and organized learning
  • Routine, predictability and active participation
  • Authorship, creativity and construction of solutions
School direction

What guides the unit

Preparing for the future means developing critical thinking, technological repertoire and confidence to continue learning.

Mission

Offer quality teaching in technology, combining technical knowledge, human development, creativity and preparation for the future.

Vision

To be a reference in technology and innovation, training students more prepared for school, social and professional life.

IYRC

International competition and local support

My Robot School organizes IYRC, one of the largest student robotics competitions in the world. Students can participate in local stages and advance to regional, state, national and world stages.

This experience develops discipline, collaboration, logical reasoning, creativity, emotional control and contact with other cultures.
