Lixeira Interativa Aprendizagem de Crianças Fora da Faixa de Alfabetização

Selective collection is an alternative way to minimize theenvironmental impact of waste that is disposed of and to reduce theproduction of misused waste. This work aims to raise awarenessamong children outside the literacy range, interactively teachingthe importance of selective collection. The proposal includes theconstruction of a prototype automated trash bin, made up ofelectronic components and controlled through the Arduinoplatform and the help of sensors and actuators. Thus, when the childapproaches the dumpster, a sound is emitted according to thematerial the dumpster receives, so the child deposits the wastecorrectly and consciously, without the need to be literate,interactively and associating that waste should be sorted anddisposed of properly. After prototyping, the assessment of learningwill be qualitative, through observation of the interaction of thechild with the trash, where the "hits" (correct disposal) can bequantified, as well as their reactions and perceptions.
