Recently, a course titled Educational Robotics as a Teaching Tool has taken place at one of the teaching laboratories of ETSE-UV. It is a part of the training programme offered by the Lifelong Learning Service, directed towards non-academic teachers.

The course has been taught by researchers and professors of Grupo DSDS from the Department of Electronic Engineering. 15 professors from Vocational Training Courses and Secondary Education were present – all of them interested in introducing robotics as a tool of learning. This discipline is one which, because of its nature, requires very heterogeneous fields of knowledge such as physics, electronics, mathematics, programming...This gives the contents of the course an integrative value, providing the learners with knowledge of subjects different from the one they are learning, while at the same time receiving the subject matter in a more attractive way that calls for a proactive attitude.
