Introduction
Step into the future classroom: NAO!
NAO is the most widely used humanoid robot for academic purposes worldwide.
Fully interactive, fun, and constantly evolving, NAO is a trusted platform for teaching students at different levels.
Why teach with robots?
Robotics is one of the latest technological innovations, and a humanoid robot is an ideal learning tool for classes at all levels.
Robots allow students to connect theory with practice and discover a wide range of robotics-related fields, such as computer science, engineering, and mathematics.
Students gain hands-on experience using NAO, and, when used in the lab, they discover exciting topics such as locomotion, grasping, audio and video signal processing, voice recognition, and much more.
NAO also allows teachers to integrate team work, project management, problem solving, and communication skills in a stimulating setting. NAO offers the flexibility for developing interdisciplinary projects.
Educational Robotics is...
Visionary
Bill Gates, the Japanese Robotics Association, and the European Commission have something in common: they all believe robotics will be as important tomorrow as computers are today. This means all future engineers, scientists, and researchers in applied sciences benefit from learning about robotics.
Engaging
By merging sciences like mathematics, physics, and psychology, robots provide cutting-edge innovations that all engineering students need to master. Thus, robotics is the perfect tool for teaching science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) subjects.
Fun
Robots allow teachers to practice project-oriented pedagogy that includes many hands-on experiments. For students of all ages and levels, this makes classes more lively and fun.
Motivating
Educators who have used humanoid robots in their classes all agree that robots have great motivational impact on students and raise the bar in classroom learning. The management skills you learn through team projects make lessons with NAO even more motivating.
