The 1st INBOTS European Summer School in Educational Robotics - Call for teachers & students
The 1st INBOTS European Summer School in Educational Robotics
Call for teachers & students
At InnovAthens/Technopolis City of Athens, July 13-18, 2020
http://edumotiva.eu/edumotiva/summerschool/
Organiser: EDUMOTIVA (Greece) with support from the European project INBOTS CSA (2018-20) and the University of Siena (INBOTS/WP3 leader).
Theme: “make your own robots”. The school supports the transition from pre-programmed, prefabricated solutions and silo products, which are conceived by learners as “black boxes”, to a “white box” paradigm where learners change role from consumers of technology to designers and makers of transparent robotic artefacts. This educational paradigm shift will provide insight into how hands-on learning experiences with robotics develop the 21st century skills for children .
Teachers’ school will include training in the creative use of robotics technologies intended for pre-school & primary education. Then, teachers will work on projects that will result in several robotic artefacts and will exemplify the paradigm“make your own robots”. No previous experience is required, novices in robotics are welcome.
Students’ school will include projects that will introduce smoothly learners into age-appropriate technologies. Then, students will work in small teams to create several robotic artefacts. No previous experience is required, novices in robotics are welcome.
