A 3D printing whiteboard robot that can help students learn programming

As our world becomes more and more digital, more and more people need to master coding and computer programming techniques. Recently, in order to promote IT technology education in schools, students were enrolled in computer programming technology in the lower grades. A team from Harvard University's Wyss Biological Learning Institute developed Root, which is a small one designed for the classroom. 3D printer is a small man.

It is reported that Root robots are suitable for all ages and can be used from kindergarten to university. According to Tiangong, Root mainly works on the whiteboard in the classroom. Users can send instructions to it through a specially designed app, Square. This robot can not only move on the whiteboard (by magnets), but also draw, erase the blackboard, and react to many different elements, such as light and color.

Developers say that the biggest feature of this small hexagonal robot is convenience. Because almost every classroom in today's school is equipped with a whiteboard, this robot can be easily integrated into the teaching environment. With a simple, customizable design, researchers hope their robots will help attract students and interest them in programming.

In addition, developers have programmed different levels of difficulty with Root programming: lower grade students can handle simple graphics blocks and use the intuitive "if/then" statement to let the robot move and perform tasks; slightly more advanced students The robot can be operated with more complex interactions; at the highest level, the robot can be programmed using a full computer language. In this way, Root can adapt to almost any classroom environment and can be used for many years.

According to Zivthan Dubrovsky of the Wyss Institute, because programming is fairly abstract, if there is an actual robot that can interact with the kids, this will be the easiest way to help children learn programming. “Programming becomes alive by putting the robot in front of the kids,” he said. With a tablet with an easy-to-use Square program, Root is able to bring computer programming to school in a unique, fun and engaging way.

In addition, the estimated price of this 3D printing robot is only about $199, which is enough for the school to afford. Although the development team is currently using 3D printing technology to produce the robot in small quantities, they still want to be able to mass-produce it and use it for the first time in 2017.
