Botball's mantra is that “Today’s Botball kids are tomorrow’s scientists and engineers.” [2] The program is managed by the non-profit KISS Institute for Practical Robotics (KISS stands for the engineering acronym: Keep It Simple Stupid) whose vision is to use robotics "to stimulate and engage students in exploring their potential in engineering, science and math."
Educational robotics can be a useful tool in early and special education. [12] According to a journal on new perspectives in science education, educational robotics can help to develop abilities that promote autonomy and assist their integration into society. Social and personal skills can also be developed through educational robotics. [13]
VEX AI is a planned advanced robotics program for high school and university students. The pilot program registration was initially scheduled to open to university students in fall of 2020, [ 5 ] however, as of 2024, no competitions have taken place. [ 6 ]
FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) is an international high school robotics competition. Each year, teams of high school students, coaches, and mentors work during a six-week period to build robots capable of competing in that year's game that weigh up to 115 pounds (52 kg). [ 4 ]
Behavior-based robotics (BBR) or behavioral robotics is an approach in robotics that focuses on robots that are able to exhibit complex-appearing behaviors despite little internal variable state to model its immediate environment, mostly gradually correcting its actions via sensory-motor links.
The first and highest-scale program developed through FIRST is the FIRST Robotics Competition, which is designed to inspire high school students to become engineers by giving them real world experience working with engineers to develop a robot. The inaugural FIRST Robotics Competition was held in 1992 in the Manchester Memorial High School ...
Cumberland County Christian School is already at capacity for the 2023-24 school year with 125 students, but Respus is opening a new school to specifically serve children with mild to moderate autism.
The Robotics Education & Competition Foundation (REC Foundation or RECF) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization best known for managing competitions and programs for the VEX Robotics Competition. [1] Over 1.1 million students have participated in RECF programs around the world.
