educative solutions for the 21 st century, founded by a
group of students and professionals from different
countries, culture mainly Europe, brazil, India, at the
beginning
 AToOmega wants to be an instrument to change and
improve science and technologic teaching/ learning
process
 AToOmega wants to be an instrument of making
education accessible to anywhere around the world,
nowadays possible through new technologies and web
environments

3. Motivation and present problems
 Two Basic related problems
 There is a lack of students in science in High school
and University and all around the world (Europe, …)
 Need to improve science teaching/learning processes.
 Teachers don’t know and/ or don’t teach applying results
from science education
 Exam oriented Education system : which hurts the motive
of learning, and make it pressure rather than fun.
 There is a lack of technologic skills in companies so
they need to improve training through externalising
this training service

4. What is AToOmega
 Our main initial idea for the class startup project
is to create an online organisation to develop
educative innovations in a broad sense:
 To offer didactical materials about teaching-learning
sciences, online and offline, consulting in education
strategies, consulting in new technologies of
comunication and information, web environnments
and designing customized services
 To a lot of topics of interests
 To a lot of segments of customers: individuals and
companies

5. What we offer
 Provide Courses and materials designed applying Science
education knowledge.
 Provide online courses through a large broad of themes
of interests: in scientific and technologic disciplines,
engineering, Computer Science, etc.
 Contextualised courses to local and global issues and
cultural sensibility to local educative problems and needs
