Robotics Over Internet Protocol

Workshop to prepare the Calendar and content of the Erasmus + project of wgich Istitiuto Montale and the School of Robotics are partners.
Summary of the project. Robotics, microcontroller programming, creating applications are very rapidly developing areas and teachers constantly need to increase their knowledge and present the latest trends to their students. Only a few years ago, a market for programing mobile devices did not exist (as was the case of devices for installing advanced applications). Nowadays mobile application programers are professionals sought for on the IT market. A similar situation takes place in the case of robots – the fast progress requires constant training and learning. Our project concentrates on students’ as well as teachers’ competence. All trainings offered by the partners are from outside of our schools’ curriculum. The topics of several courses are not taught in schools which will organize the courses – they are a result of teachers’ individual development and extracurricular activities for the most interested students whose skills reach far beyond the curriculum. Participation in trainings will allow theachers to familiarize themselves with new working tools, programing languages and environments. Students are in a similar situation, including those most active – participation in the project will increase their development even more. Thanks to the project both target groups will gain new competence and students will achieve a better status on the professional market. Teachers, through trainings, will be able to pass their knowledge and new tools to other groups of students during their classes.
We want products of our cooperation to be free of charge and available to everyone. That is why we will make our multilingual video course of Swift programming available as Open Educational Resource. 5 language versions will make access to it easier for people using English, Turkish, Italian, Portugese and Polish. Although availability of materials in English is high, good quality educational materials in other languages are scarce. The gap shall be filled by our course.
