Subject "Robots" at the CTU FEE in Prague - using LEGO robots to teach the fundamentals of feedback control

Original language description

Study of technical subjects could be very difficult for new students entering the faculty with different background. Traditional study of theoretical disciplines without any clear relevance to "real" problems decreases motivation of many students, particularly those having difficulties with advanced mathematics. The core objective of our new subject Robots is to explore, in friendly way, students' independent thinking, and creativity and work in team. Although the theory is limited we believe that our students will eventually improve their theoretical knowledge as well. They start with something like child game trying to move robot from one place to another. Then, to succeed in more complicated tasks, they soon recognize that there is something behindthe curtain and they start to ask how to solve the problems looking for a solution actively. If they reach this stage they are "trapped" - and become excellent and highly motivated students of control engineering
