Konferencja Robotics to Support Adult Education

Konferencja Robotics to Support Adult Education to przede wszystkim okazja do prezentacji kilku projektów realizowanych w ostatnich latach na Politechnice Łódzkiej, których rezultaty służą wsparciu edukacji poprzez zastosowanie robotyki i innych nowoczesnych technologii, w tym sztucznej inteligencji. Poza ciekawymi wykładami zaoferujemy aż 3 warsztaty pokazujące praktyczne zastosowanie kilku narzędzi wspomagających pracę edukatorów. Z pewnością staną się inspiracją do dalszego rozwoju oraz indywidulanych poszukiwań, a także wspólnej dyskusji nad kierunkami rozwoju edukacji. Zapraszamy do rejestracji jako "teacher" – liczba miejsc ograniczona. Registration Teams link More information
