Brain Calculus

Robotics and young minds

The world today runs with the help of robots; right from cleaning homes, cooking food, to assembling cars in huge manufacturing plants and defence, robots have found a place in almost every possible field of work one can think of. Robotics can also be a fun stepping-stone for getting a child interested in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) subjects that can lead to amazing careers later in life.

Robots can provide an interactive means of teaching kids about math in context by taking the numbers off the page and into real life.

Using robots to lift objects can strengthen a child’s understanding of physics concepts like motions, electricity, force, tension and many more.

Engineers build everything from cars to cities, and children can learn a great deal about the field of engineering through robotics.
