Using Robotic Technology as a Constructionist Mindtool in Knowledge Construction
نویسندگان
چکیده
The knowledge society brings its own challenges and demands upon its citizens. Key amongst these is the need to empower people to become lifelong learners, to reflect upon their own learning, to become problem solvers and to appreciate technology. This paper records the experiences of an innovative project using a constructionist Mindtool approach in a module on logic, robotics, and programming for non-technical third level students.

متن کاملAre Autonomous Mobile Robots Able to Take Over Construction? A Review
Although construction has been known as a highly complex application field for autonomous robotic systems, recent advances in this field offer great hope for using robotic capabilities to develop automated construction. Today, space research agencies seek to build infrastructures without human intervention, and construction companies look to robots with the potential to improve construction qua...
متن کاملDoppler and bearing tracking using fuzzy adaptive unscented Kalman filter
The topic of Doppler and Bearing Tracking (DBT) problem is to achieve a target trajectory using the Doppler and Bearing measurements. The difficulty of DBT problem comes from the nonlinearity terms exposed in the measurement equations. Several techniques were studied to deal with this topic, such as the unscented Kalman filter. Nevertheless, the performance of the filter depends directly on the...
متن کاملComputationally-Rich Constructionism and At-Risk Learners
In 1999, Maine Governor Angus King Jr. asked Seymour Papert to develop a model of what learning might look like in the future. Papert’s forty years of work with children and computing, as well as the historic impact information technology is having on society, required that this vision for the future of learning would involve computers. The result of this collaboration was the Constructionist L...
