Robotics!
Exciting isn’t it? Have you ever wondered as a young child how robots move or how are they able to do tasks that we do or even more than that?
But today the scenario is completely different. The last 2 years have been a scourge and a boon both for the education industry. At one end, the traditional school system and teaching techniques have taken a big blow for locking induced by COVID-19, on the other side, the education led by technology took the lead. The brightest minds in industry and the university world have come together to innovate the means to ensure that education continued, the children also had fun while they are confined in the four walls of their respective homes.
Things that were inaccessible a few years ago, the management of schools of the new age decided to make the jump of faith and include cursed technologies such as AI / ml, AR / VR / XR, robotics, etc. in the school program and feed young minds by exposing them to advanced sciences. In the post-comfortable world, school education increases so that children learn things that would benefit, motivate, aspire them and inspire them to be productive while increasing their ability to get out of the box and innovate new ideas and produce projects that weigh in mind for a better and reliable future.
Adapt to the robotic studies program in schools
Many New Age schools include robotics in the school program while keeping in mind, understanding and ability of students to capture and understand what they have taught while introducing and improvising futuristic learning in classrooms and laboratories with the latest technologies such as 3D printers, drones, engines, controllers and sensors to give students an idea.
Educators / teachers trained for quality teaching experience
Needless to say, the supply of technologies in classrooms is not enough. These children need teachers and faculties trained by professionals who can guide them and answer their questions with the greatest satisfaction. The very advanced laboratories that support robotics as a subject are also necessary to be treated and assisted by experts specific to industry, which can make students aware of safety measures and how the available equipment must be used.
Robotics also encourage children to make science and mathematics, that is to say apply them while making students fun to learn and practice so that the faculties are more attractive.
Teachers must always be present to clean the doubts and guide them with precision while keeping up to date on the latest technology trends.
Learning based on projects
The practical use of tools and machines can help grab the subject much faster than theoretical classes. Projects on subjects taught at school will encourage children to express their creativity by themselves and learn the subject deeply individually and in collaboration with their peers. In a way, this also improves the child’s social interaction skills, because they gain confidence thanks to teamwork and the collaborations they will do in this learning method based on projects.
The orchid program is a combination of coding and robotics. Yes “We have created a unique program adapted to students where IT and robotics work hand in hand.” said Abraham.
Global development of the student
Coding improves the capacities of cognitive and logical reasoning of an individual.
Coding facilitates mathematical problem solving, building robots while inducing various mechanical devices. Coding is essentially written instructions that a robot or a computer program can read and then execute accordingly. Students are invited to determine the task they wish to perform via a robot, to design to get there, then ask the robot to see the result. The most popular language in robotics is C / C ++. Python is also very popular due to its use in automatic learning.
The program is adapted to age, based on the level of maturity, experiences and level of understanding of students, and will be improved each year.
However, although the inclusion of new age courses such as robotics in the school program is a big leap forward for the Indian education system.
It will only reach its true potential if we, as an agademicians and actors of the industry, as well as government entities, can ensure the end of the digital divide in rural and urban areas. We must make equity, only then as a nation, we can all progress at the desired rate.
