Teaching Robotics

  • Elementary, Middle and High School

    Robotics is a great way to get students excited about science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) and to engage them in complex, strategic problem-solving. It introduces students to concepts and skills that are needed for understanding the intelligent, highly interactive information-based technology of the future.

    At elementary school level, teaching robotics starts with simpler concepts like the scientific principles of distance of speed, principle of pulleys, inertia, elasticity. Beginner kits like the Robotis Ollo Starter Kit are playful hands-on kits that can spark creative thinking in younger students.

    Middle school and high school students can graduate onto more complex robotics kits that include motors, sensors and controllers to include programming lessons in your curriculum.

  • Robotics Competitions for Students

    Organizations like US FIRST, SAE International and  the Association for Unmanned Vehicles Systems International (AUVSI) Foundation host regular competitions that students can compete in at all levels

    SolidWorks 3D CAD design software and Stratasys 3D printers can support your students’s robotics designs for these competitions.

  • Higher Education

    More complex robots, like Robotis Humanoid Research Robots, offer advanced computational power, sophisticated sensors, high payload capacity, and dynamic motion ability to enable more sophisticated research and education activities.

    Vocational Schools and Community Colleges

    Built for high schools, vocational schools and community colleges, robot systems like those from FANUC America teach students how to program a real robot, in real time, in a safe, controlled environment. FANUC also offers a line of collaborative robots, which combine unrivaled strength with outstanding safety to make interactive robot/human collaboration possible for a much wider range of applications.
