Robotics Module in Enhancing Interactive Stem Education

Teaching robotics to young students can increase their ability to be creative, innovative thinkers and more productive members of society throughout their school years. Indian government have already recognized the importance of robotics in the classroom teaching and started ATAL tinkering lab to be included in school education system. By teaching the basics of robotics to the students, one can open up a whole new world for them and exciting opportunities which they wouldn't have access to. In traditional teaching methods of science and engineering, students lack experience in applying physical principles to the physical situation in real time. Students are not engaged in creating interest in interactive learning. To overcome above problem, this paper presents a new and versatile interactive learning tool using the Whizbrabo Robotic Education Module. This module describes the method of an educational tool based on robotics to study electrical component interfacing, pcb design, mechanical structure design and elementary programming skill. The module has been demonstrated to school students of higher secondary, and undergraduate student of various colleges. The key advantages of robotics in school education will enhance the level of programming, creativity and prepare them for the future, turn their frustration into innovation and promote inclusiveness. Robotics has a lot of educational potential.
