A workshop that explores the evolution of human intelligence through educational robotics, using LEGO Mindstorms kits as tools to engage in active experiments involving the processes and mechanisms that have acted as mainstays for this fascinating development.
We study three progressive levels to discover how to program our LEGO Mindstorms, so that they simulate the behaviours that have characterised this extraordinary evolutionary process: from simple coordinated movement to the capacity to react to the surrounding environment, all the way to abstraction and creativity.
Each level is a step forward in understanding intelligence, an educational pathway that skips between discovery, logic, programming and reassessment; the technology feeds into the learning experience by adding interactivity, practical experimentation and fun.
By enrolling in the first lesson, the participant will be automatically registered for the entire duration of the course.
