Inclusión social a través de la educación

1. Inclusión social a través de la educación

2. About us Omapa has the main goal of social inclusion through education.

3. Goals and Objectives To create awareness and influence the academic and business community. Impulse education of quality. Get involved in the preparation of teachers and students. Encourage the development of politics, legal and academic tools.

4. MATHEMATICS

5. MATHEMATICS • National Mathematical Olympiad The national mathematical Olympiad is the strategy that Omapa has to get inside the Paraguayan classrooms, with an innovative propose of a mathematic of quality that encourages the logical thinking and the reasoning and uses the mathematic as a tool for problem solving of any kind. Teachers and students work together throughout the school year, aiming to train for this competition, which has five rounds and covers the whole school year.

6. MATHEMATICS • National Mathematical Olympiad Books • Each year, a selection of math problems is published by OMAPA. These problems are creative, different and based in logical thinking. • These books are handed to each teacher who participates in the workshops as one of the activities of the National Mathematical Olympiad.

27. COMPUTING

28. COMPUTING AGUARANDÚ: Game of words of the Guaraní language (Aguará: Fox. Arandú: Wisdom) Aguarandú It comes as a country-proposal, because the necessity of the programming professional that the entire world is having, and the potential that Paraguay has with its majority young population.

29. COMPUTING Aguarandú Omapa, with 25 years of experiences in mathematical Olympiads, knows deeply the skills of Paraguayan young, who possess a logical thinking structure, the essential need for computer programming. Betting on these values, the Programming Contest is created to generate a seedbed of talents able to produce services that the entire world is demanding.
