摘要
Over the last few years, the scope of the university, traditionally focused on young adults, has been revisited; universities have started an opening process towards today's information-driven society to contribute to the transformation of our education system. Since 2007, Universitat d'Andorra (UdA) has embraced this new era by implementing multiple initiatives in the framework of the UNESCO Chair Information Technologies: Training and solidary development. The case of small states. Among these initiatives, "Apren amb Pitavola" stands out as a contemporary approach to instil technology-related knowledge into primary schoolers. The main goal of this non-profit initiative is to bridge the gap between children's inherent ability to use technology and the actual interest in becoming more than mere users.
