| Title: | ROBERTA - Learning with robots |
| Implementation |  |
| Field(s) of Action: | * Presence and Visibility |
| * Gender Dimension in Research and Education | |
| Objectives: | * Promotion of technical and natural scientific studies and careers * Recruitment of female scientists * Creating interest in science |
| Target Group(s): | Pupils (Secondary and High school students) Students (undergraduate and graduate) Girls and young women; especially for school girls |
| Description: | The project ROBERTA makes technical education accessible for girls and young women in a playful way. It is made for 8-12 participants. The girls learn how to build their own, individual robot with an individual software. Different methods and durations for the implementation are possible: in class, a special day/week, in the afternoon etc. Trips to the technical university in Berlin are inclusive. A project like this can be run not only on robots, but also by doing physical experiments. There is also a possibility to handcraft models of physical phenomena. |
