KIDS ROBOTICS TRAINING
3
What is Robotics ?
  • Robotics is the branch of science focused on
    learning about and creating robots or machines
    that can do work.

4
Why Robotics for Kids
  • The main purpose of the project was to enhance
    science and math learning experiences through
    educational Robotics for students who have not
    had this type of opportunity in their regular
    school setting. The project had multiple goals to
    support its main purpose.
  • The primary goals were to develop and test
    curriculum, curriculum materials and supplemental
    resources.
  • A secondary goal was to examine the use of
    practical applications for the technology within
    a non-traditional educational environment in
    order to anticipate technical difficulties in our
    implementation plan.

5
What We Provide
  • We provides you with the basic knowledge of
    Robotics so that the child gets familiar with the
    underlying principles of Robotics.
  • We are here to prepare your child for the
    technology driven future.
  • We provide a platform where your child can
    explore his/her ideas along with gaining
    knowledge about Robotics.
  • We also provide hands-on practice sessions so
    that they can be groomed to compete with the
    competitive world.
  • Certificates will be provided to children.
  • Our training courses also include coding.
  • We also provide skills which will be advantageous
    for kids for their coming future.

The Project was composed of four stages
  • Curriculum Development
  • First Implementation
  • Innovation and Modification
  • Second Implementation

7
Curriculum Development
  • Throughout the development process, we asked a
    set of questions. We attempted to divide the
    students learning process into three broad
    phases , engaging them through a series of
    Challenges.
  • 1.Construction
  • 2.Programming
  • 3 .Application

8
Implementation
  • In the first two lessons (Basic Construction
    and Basic Programming), we decided to give
    students sample programs to copy. They seemed to
    have an easier time learning by example, starting
    with working code, testing its limitations,
    modifying it and testing again. We tried to cater
    to the various needs of our students. Sometimes
    this meant presenting the material in numerous
    ways. For example, some students were having
    difficulty understanding when to use different
    programming structures like conditional
    statements and for loops. First, we discussed the
    power each structure adds to a program. Then we
    created a mapping of English words to the various
    structures words like forever, continuously,
    repeatedly or for X number of times signal the
    use of a jumps and loops.

9
The students were divided into groups. Each group
used one robot kit. Although we feel that 3
students per group is optimal, forcing the
students into larger groups would not be
beneficial to the teachers and the students. Some
of the students absolutely refused to work with
other students, and others only wanted to work
with certain people. Despite these issues, we
were told by the staff that students responded
better in the robotics class than in other
classes. This demonstrates that educational
robotics has the potential to attract this
population of students and to provide an
effective and motivating learning experience. We
also found that disinterested students could be
enticed to participate with challenges they found
cool.This encouraged us to develop more cool
challenges to attract these potential learners.

Innovation and Modification
  • The First Implementation stage provided us with
    valuable experiences that helped us modify and
    create more useful and effective curriculum
    materials,
  • which we then used in the Second Implementation
    stage. These include additional lessons as well
    as supplementary materials to accompany all
    lessons.
  • We have developed further lessons that
    demonstrate high school math and physics concepts
    using the robots.
  • These lessons allow students to explore the scope
    of the physical robots while experimenting with
    basic principles. As a result, we developed a
    workbook and a design journal.

11
The workbook contains Tips and Tricks. Similarly,
Tips and Tricks is aimed at helping students
avoid and troubleshoot problems. The design
journal presents ways for students to reflect on
how they solved challenges as well as to identify
their personal contributions to their group.
