As much as we love books, we also (love to) hate memorization! That’s why we’re so excited to welcome Robotics to the classroom in the Athens Science Festival. The Workshops of Change for Educators aim to introduce you to the world of robots and give you the opportunity to explore their potential and discover how you can integrate them into your teaching.

At the same time, in the workshop “Build your own Sumo Robot from scratch!” by coLab Makerspace, you will get to know the new trends in 3D Printing hardware and Open Source software. And inspired by the popular in Europe, America, and Asia “mini sumo” competition Robotics category, you will build your own moving robot, taking advantage of open technologies.

In the “O3 Robotics Workshop for educators” designed by O3 Out of the Ordinary you can delve into robotics technology, explore how your new, valuable partners work, and build your own robots based on your educational needs.

Sunday 21 Apr 2024 | 17:30 – 18:45 | INNOVATHENS

Whether you’re a tech-savvy innovator or a curious beginner, learn how to design engaging projects, troubleshoot technical challenges, and foster a love for STEM in your students.

The Workshops of Change for Educators with a focus on Robotics will inspire you and equip you with the knowledge you need to bring this exciting technology to life in the classroom!
