EDUCATIONAL ROBOTICS: A NEW ARENA IN CLASSROOM TEACHING

Abstract

Robotics activities give abundant educational opportunities, but its impact and<br> reach have defined by the conventional way in which it has been introduced. While<br> projects including cars, vehicles and mobile robots are evidently appealing to young<br> people, many other young people do not become fully engaged in these types of<br> projects where development and usage of Educational Robotics (ER) are involved.<br> By offering alternate pathways into robotics that can gain student's attention, we<br> have a chance to engage a wider and more different people in new learning<br> experiences. This paper explores approaches for exposing students to robotic<br> technologies and ideas and explains the significance of implementing multiple ways<br> into robotics, to ensure that there are entry points to engage people with diverse<br> interests and learning styles
