With the increasingly close combination of the education field and artificial intelligence technology, it is of certain positive significance for children to master some programming knowledge for their future learning.
Why should children learn robot programming? Robot programming integrates multiple disciplines such as mathematics, English, science, physics, and art. During the learning process, children do not improve a single ability but enhance their comprehensive abilities comprehensively.
How do children learn robot courses? The purpose of robot programming courses is to allow students to assemble and build with given parts, and then control the robot by writing programs. The courses involve knowledge related to hardware and software, with a greater emphasis on hardware knowledge. Take the robot programming courses of Katam as an example. With Lego as the main course, from design, construction, programming to control, children can gradually understand the production process of robots from simple to complex.
While learning comprehensive subject knowledge, they can exercise children’s logical thinking ability, improve their thinking agility, physical coordination, language expression ability, social interaction ability, and active learning ability.
Through the setting of courses with different themes, children’s different abilities are cultivated. In a learning atmosphere that combines education with entertainment, through the creation of gamified course scenarios and interactive experiences, children’s learning interest is enhanced, and their various abilities are improved in an efficient and interesting way. For example, in the theme of gear rotation, children are helped to learn the working principles of common machines in life, understand principles such as belt transmission, direction change of transmission wheels, and connecting rod movement, satisfy children’s curiosity about machinery, and cultivate children’s ability to apply these principles to solve problems in life; in the theme of "Air Traffic", through meticulous observation in life, children learn basic traffic rules. In the exploration process from the known to the unknown, they learn the design and construction of the scene and critical vocabulary to improve their language expression and explanation abilities. Especially, it helps children give full play to their creativity and flexibility and reflect the uniqueness of their works.
While Katam has the above complete robot programming course system, there are also characteristic open challenge courses, mathematics thinking courses, technology creation courses, competitions and grade examinations, etc. Katam has the exclusive open challenge course in the industry. Our building block series courses are mainly Lego series courses, combined with national treasure-level building block teaching aids from countries such as the United States, Japan, and Israel, to build a rich course system for children from 2 to 18 years old. In this series of courses, children will produce at least 400 works. The courses mainly focus on learning to perceive life. Through highly integrated building blocks, children can create any three-dimensional works, thereby having detailed observations and in-depth understanding of the things they come into contact with, forming rich and profound impressions and awakening children’s desire to construct objects.
In the process of children’s continuous creation, their accumulation and exercise of perceptual experiences such as observation and attention have been improved unanimously.
