The article underlines the significance of using autonomous robotics in the teaching of science and engineering. It highlights the educational goals of the autonomous robotics class. Autonomous robotics classes at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) in Cleveland, Ohio, uses "Lego block," in the study of issues in engineering and science education. Autonomous robotics course grew out of ongoing research on biologically inspired robotics at CWRU. Integrated approaches are essential for solving problems in engineering and science. Similarly, the education of biology students emphasizes the reductive analysis of animals into cells and molecules, but not how such components as sensory structures, musculature, and neural control are integrated into complete functioning biological systems. Comprehending these phenomenon through autonomous robotics becomes substantially easy. The course has proved to be extremely successful, as it comprehends to the demand of very different perspectives in solving a difficult problem. |
