The innovative work of Science Education Centers (CECs) of ISD was the subject of a report in Jornal RN TV 2nd Edition, by InterTV Cabugi, an affiliate of Rede Globo in RN, on 3/14. The CECs annually offer 1,400 vacancies for public school students who are studying in the second segment of elementary school (6th to 9th grade). These have the opportunity to attend science education workshops after regular school hours, in areas such as science and technology, biology, chemistry, physics, history, art, robotics, communication and the environment.
The workshops are developed in groups of up to 25 students and under the pedagogical guidance of two educators per workshop. The CECs are located in Natal (RN), Macaíba (RN) and Serrinha (BA). More than 11,000 students have already taken part in the CECs' science education workshops since the inauguration of the first unit, in Natal (RN), 10 years ago.

The pedagogical proposal of the CECs shown in the InterTV Cabugi report addresses content from different disciplines that do not depart from the students' lives, as the scientific projects developed serve culture and the community, favoring the diversity of looking at reality, in order to better understand it and transform it into more human levels. The article also comments on the Continuing Training Programs for Educators and Managers of Public Schools and the involvement of the CECs with the Smart and Human Cities Project.
