Dance Competition Pairs Humanoid Robots with Students
Feb 20 2013Humanoid robots take center stage in a new dance competition designed for California students.
Called Robotic Idol 2013, the competition challenges teams of junior high and high school students to make robots — that have body parts like humans, and can see, hear, speak and move — dance. In two separate competitions, teams of five students will compete in Northern California and Southern California.
By creating this competition, the French company Aldebaran Robotics and the San Francisco based company robotsLAB hope to attract more students to robotics and science.

Despite extremely alarming "Drones In Classrooms" headline, RobotsLAB STEM teaching tools look inspiring!
Feb 12 2013The revolutionary product utilizes robotics technology as an easy-to-use teaching-aid for STEM topics. A standards-aligned curriculum was developed with educators; each lesson is an app on the included tablet which controls the robots in the package. Every module comes with an instructional video, a demonstrative touch-based lesson, a quiz, and supplemental teaching materials.
The BOX is synergistic with President Obama's "Educate to Innovate" campaign; aiding in the race towards the US becoming one of the leaders in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) by inspiring students to be the next generation of makers, discoverers, and innovators and helping teachers to easily demonstrate abstract concepts such as quadratic equations, in real life.

Can Robots Improve Math Class?
Feb 6 2013, Austin, TXOne of the best ways to teach new math is through hands-on learning, which is easily done in the early grades using pegboards or a bucket of plastic bears. It's tougher when kids move on to abstract concepts like algebra and calculus. A company in San Francisco thinks it has a solution: drones in the classroom.
