Using Robots as Learning Objects for Teaching Computer Science
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a concept of Robots As Learning Objects (RALO) and a framework of methodology for robotics-oriented teaching of Computer Science (CS) topics based on the Constructivist and Empirical Modelling paradigms. Our methodology views robotic technologies not as mere tools, but rather as vehicles of new ways of thinking and reasoning about teaching, learning and education at large. We formulate the pedagogy-driven activities, technology-driven processes, knowledge transfer channels with actors involved, tools and facilities used, and the pedagogical outcome in the robot-based constructivist learning process and describe our experience in using RALOs for teaching CS at high school (gymnasium) and university levels.

Using BELBIC based optimal controller for omni-directional threewheel robots model identified by LOLIMOT
In this paper, an intelligent controller is applied to control omni-directional robots motion. First, the dynamics of the three wheel robots, as a nonlinear plant with considerable uncertainties, is identified using an efficient algorithm of training, named LoLiMoT. Then, an intelligent controller based on brain emotional learning algorithm is applied to the identified model. This emotional l...

Computers have been used for language teaching ever since the 1960's.Learning a second language is a challenging endeavor, and, for decades now, proponents of computer assisted language learning (CALL) have declared that help is on the horison. We investigate the suitability of deploying speech technology in computer based systems that can be used to teach foreign language skills. In this case,...
متن کاملOperation Sequencing Optimization in CAPP Using Hybrid Teaching-Learning Based Optimization (HTLBO)
Computer-aided process planning (CAPP) is an essential component in linking computer-aided design (CAD) and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM). Operation sequencing in CAPP is an essential activity. Each sequence of production operations which is produced in a process plan cannot be the best possible sequence every time in a changing production environment. As the complexity of the product incr...
