Through the program, students learn to make calculations using the ancient Greek “calculator” and to predict events with the Antikythera Mechanism.
They will have the opportunity to take part in a workshop where they will construct, on their own, the most important component of the first computer in history — the Heart of the Mechanism!
The aim of the program is for students to become familiar with the computing devices of the Ancient Greeks and, through the hands-on construction process, to develop their skills while understanding the theory through practice.
