As you know, the world is changing and technology is taking center stage. But for us to keep up with this everchanging world, it is important to engage children in the classrooms. Like they say, catch them young! So introducing kids to robotics may be one of the solutions to be able to keep up with the present world.
So what is robotics?
Robotics is part of our everyday lives in many ways; we see them around us, from kid’s toys to automatic vacuum cleaners. These are any programmable mechanical device that follows a set of directives.
So why is robotics important in classrooms?
Through robotics, kids can learn a lot about the engineering field. Assisting kids in building robots can help them grasp function and design concepts. Moreover, the lesson also gives them an exciting and enjoyable reward at the end, which is the robot itself. Mechanics and electrical engineering are concepts that creating a robot impart to children.
