EcoAlerta: Desenvolvimento de Aplicativo Cidadão para Gestão de Resíduos e Alagamentos no Technovation Girls 2026
Resumo
Este artigo relata a experiência de desenvolvimento do aplicativo EcoAlerta no Technovation Girls 2026, por quatro estudantes do Ensino Médio de uma escola pública do interior nordestino, sem experiência prévia em programação. Desenvolvido com MIT App Inventor, o aplicativo permite registrar pontos de descarte irregular de lixo e riscos de alagamento por geolocalização, organizando ocorrências por prioridade. A equipe concluiu todas as fases do programa, incluindo o pitch em uma universidade pública federal. Os resultados evidenciam aprendizagens nas dimensões técnica, socioemocional e cidadã, corroborando o potencial da Aprendizagem Baseada em Projetos para o ensino de computação inclusivo em escolas públicas do interior nordestino.Referências
