Nowadays, the education industry in our country is developing rapidly, and robot education has become popular. Many parents now begin to pay attention to robot education and let their children participate in robot learning. In fact, robot education has many benefits for children. The benefits are listed below to give everyone a deeper understanding of the benefits of robot education.
-
Learning while playing
Children are naturally playful, active, and curious about new things. The first benefit of robot learning is that children can learn a lot of knowledge while playing, enhance imagination, innovation ability, self-confidence, and the ability to solve problems by themselves. During the process of robot learning, both IQ and EQ are exercised, and such growth is what parents are most willing to see.
-
Cultivating executive ability
During the process of robot learning, children must operate with their hands. Otherwise, the robot cannot be assembled. When choosing suitable components for assembly, if one step is not assembled well, it will affect the subsequent assembly process. This process is also a good exercise for children’s practical ability and observation ability. If they persist in this way, children’s executive ability will be greatly improved. Executive ability will be a very important ability when working in the future.
-
Shaping thinking ability
Robot learning involves knowledge of programming languages that combine physical hardware and software. It is to set the action sequence by using robots to complete a certain task. It is divided into two aspects: building and programming, which can stimulate children to think, learn, operate, and explore, thereby cultivating children’s comprehensive thinking ability. During the process of children thinking about robot programming, thinking needs to be flexibly transformed in the virtual and real spaces, so that their spatial imagination ability can be exercised. This is also an abstract thinking ability. -
Cultivating innovation consciousness
Another aspect of robot learning is that it is highly innovative. During the process of assembling and operating robots, children will discover various combination methods. As for how to assemble and operate the robots, it is up to the children’s imagination. Children can use unrestrained ideas to make their own robots. In the long run, children’s innovation ability will be improved. - Teamwork ability
Through robot learning, children can form teams to sign up for various robot competitions. In the team, teammates need to communicate and collaborate with each other to complete the works. In this way, children’s teamwork ability has also been exercised and will be a great help for children’s growth in the future.
From the above benefits of robot learning, we can see the uniqueness of robot education. Children can gain many benefits from robot learning. Some abilities cultivated from learning will be of great help to children’s future learning and growth.
