Description
Summary:This article aims at offering opportunities for reflection on the experiences developed in the area of university outreach through the description of three of the projects carried out in the framework of the Science and Technology Education Program, related to the use of technological tools and the social connection with the production and use of renewable energies. Considering the social commitment on the part of university students as the point of departure, and counting on the participation of different sectors of society, the objective was to establish links between university members and the community, taking advantage of science and technology as intermediaries. In this way we wish to awaken curiosity in children, adolescents, and eventually, adults as well. Together it would be possible to propose and implement innovative solutions to daily social problems.
