  1. Genoa Meeting May 2005 A global vision of the event

  2. The schools participating in the Edurobot Project

  3. Area metropolitana

  4. Necessities • reflect on the experiencesthat have taken place; • exchangeinformation, problems, solutions, techniques, methodo-logies…; • experiment in the same surroundings during the final competition;

  5. Necessities • visit a historic and cultural European city; • allow for as many people involved in the project to participate in the event; • contain the expenses.

  6. General objectives • discuss how inter-relational and cooperation skills have been established by means of the project portal (forum, video-streaming, video-conference, chat); • illustrate • how the students and the teachers have analysed problems concerning the construction of the robot and how they have experimented with “innovative” solutions; • how they have used basic or re-cycled materials; • how they have created a common robotic platformand have carried out hardware and software personalisations; • how they have improved their ‘know-how’; • how they have checked that the final product (the robot) is the result of group research and cooperation.

  7. Objectives for young people • the realization that they have taken part in an important transnational experience, which has allowed them • to share the same objectives and values, spirit of initiative and creativity, • cooperating in the creation of a common project, • creating a network of schools • and using online communication tools (forum, chat etc,); • experimenting in the field using a common language (English), developing a robot for the competition, “challenging” other competitors.

  8. Objectives for the teachers  allow for the exchange and comparison of “good practice”, illustrating • programmes, • learning and teaching methods, • the use of new information and communication technologies for teaching;

  9. Objectives for the teachers  understand and evaluate • the teaching methodologies adopted • and the importance of the contributions offered • by cooperative e-learning, • by ICT, • by Robotics, • by new technologies in the teaching and learning processes • and by the technical, scientific and methodological updating of the teachers that work in the technical and professional secondary schools.

  10. Structure of the event

  11. Common elements • weekend (Thursday Friday, Saturday, Sunday) or including a Sunday (Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday): in order to allow the participants to use discounts offered by airlines; • ½ day to experiment the route and read the competition rules: during this time the participants can exchange information, see the work carried out by their colleagues, exchange tactics and prepare their robot…

  12. Common elements • ½ day for the competition: through this game the quality of the work undertaken will be become apparent • ½ day for a guided tour of the city: discover a city that was declared European Capital of Culture in 2004

  13. Common elements • Event folderfor each participant, containing (event leaflet, city map, sticker, a synthesis of the first results emerging from the monitoring of the activities carried out…) • A moment to play together with football, basketball and volleyball challenges …
