Robotics to Enhance the Teaching and Learning Process

Abstract

In 21st-century learning academic, where collaboration, digital literacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving are considered the core competencies to be enhanced and developed further.In a multinational country, such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE) which remains one of the fastest-growing countries on the planet in all domains including education, tourism and health there is a gap in matching students with different background. To accommodate different background, heritage and education systems for the incoming expats and their family and kids, there are different education systems (America, British, Local, Indian to name but a few) that are currently running in the UAE. However, the move from one system to another is not a straightforward process due to many reasons which can be categorized into three groups: admission stage, leveling stage, and class stage. The implementation of the proposed work will be integrated as a case study in one of the British school systems in Abu Dhabi, UAE. This paper considers the application of the robotics in Education providing the background for current use of the robots in the society.
