International Journal of Social Robotics, 2015
Previous research on attitudes toward robots has emphasized the aspect of cultural differences regarding the acceptance of social robots in everyday life. Existing work has also focused on the importance of various other factors (e.g., demographic variables, interest in science and technology, prior robot experience) that predict robot acceptance ...

Robotics and Robotics Education with Smalltalk
2005There is little software and hardware support for the structure of computations in robots, which is inherently parallel and distributed. This article describes the Agora distributed, parallel software/hardware computing architecture primarily intended for autonomous robotics, and how the software part of the architecture can be realised with simple ...

Children, robotics, and education
Artificial Life and Robotics, 2003Popular interest in robotics has increased astonishingly in the last few years. Robotics is seen by many as offering major new benefits in education at all levels. Before rushing to exploit this popularity, educators should ask serious questions about the universality and longevity of the robotics phenomenon. Is it a fashion?

"Competing" for a robotics education
IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine, 2001A strategy for integrating robot design competitions into courses in order to maximize learning experience and promote intellectual development is presented. The use of competitions fosters students' intellectual maturity, showing, inter alia, that there may be more than one correct answer to a problem.

Educational Robotics: On the Role of Robotics in Learning and Education
2009Motivation is a key ingredient for learning: Only if the learner is motivated, successful learning is possible. Educational robotics has proven to be an excellent tool for motivating students at all ages from 8 to 80. Robot competitions for kids, like RoboCupJunior, are instrumental to sustain motivation over a significant period of time.
