Popularization

Jean-Christophe Bach participated to scientific mediation by proposing several activities to demonstrate the algorithmic thinking at the core of the Computer Science without requiring any computer or even electric devices. These activities are the first part of the CSIRL (Computer Science In Real Life) project which aims to popularize computer science and to initiate children, school students and non-scientists into this domain.

Pierre-Etienne Moreau gave two lectures about “Robotics and Programming” in the ISN course (Informatique et Science du Numérique), in order to help professors of “classes de terminale” to teach this discipline. He organized a three day course about “Algorithms, Programming and Databases” in order to help professors of “classes préparatoires aux grandes écoles” to teach this discipline.

Pierre-Etienne Moreau is member of the national committee for Inria “Médiation Scientifique”. He also participated to “Fête de la Science 2014” at Mines Nancy.
