[WEBINAR] Get Ready to Teach Robotics Remotely in Fall 2020
This is a free online webinar designed to inspire and educate robotics teachers and lecturers about how to teach robotics remotely during COVID-19. Dr. Ricardo Tellez is going to share his real remote robotics teaching experience at La Salle University.
The world has changed in 2020. Due to the Coronavirus, all our social interactions have been reduced. This has led to closing universities and students learning from home. Teaching has moved online.
You can teach almost any subject online. However, some subjects are going to be more productive online than others. For instance, you can teach medical students online about all the illnesses of the lungs. However, there is a part in that teaching that involves the interaction with actual ill people. That is very difficult to provide through online teaching.
In robotics, something similar happens. If you want to teach robotics properly, you need to use a real robot. So how can we teach robotics online and provide a full learning experience?
In this free webinar, we are going to show you how to teach robotics to university students from home.
[Who should attend]
- Professors/Teachers who are preparing the robotics courses for 2020 FALL.
- Teachers who are finding a remotely teaching solution during COVID-19
[Content outline]
- Problems teaching robotics in times of deep uncertainty.
- How to get all the lectures to deliver and an introduction to robotics.
- How to set up a practice environment for remote robotics students.
- How to provide robotics practices to students remotely with simulated robots.
- How to provide robotics practices to students remotely with real robots.
- How to evaluate students (exams) and prevent cheating.
[Robots used in this webinar]
- Simulated RB-KAIROS (made by Robotnik)
- Real robot: JetBot
[Outcomes]
- Keep students learning robotics without geographical restrictions and maximize their learning outcomes through real practice.
- Move away from a slides-based teaching method to a notebook-based one, where direct interaction with robots is embedded in the method itself.
