Teaching Java with Robots and Artificial Life
This paper investigates the use of simulated robots and an artificial life simulation in the teaching of Java to first year students. The views of first year students were sought on how these environments compared with the more traditional approach that had been used previously. The results show that significant advantages could arise from using such approaches, particularly in terms of enhanci...
متن کاملTeaching Artificial Intelligence with Low-Cost Robots
While robot platforms have played a role in artificial intelligence and robotics education for over 30 years, the cost and size of these platforms have limited their reach. Recently, low-cost robot platforms have emerged, extending hands-on educational benefits to a diverse audience. In other work (Greenwald & Kopena 2003), we present and discuss the construction and implementation of a course ...
متن کاملArtificial Life and Real Robots
The first part of this paper explores the general issues in using Artificial Life techniques to program actual mobile robots. In particular it explores the difficulties inherent in transferring programs evolved in a simulated environment to run on an actual robot. It examines the dual evolution of organism morphology and nervous systems in biology. It proposes techniques to capture some of the ...
متن کاملGrounding and the Entailment Structure in Robots and Artificial Life
This paper is concerned with foundations of ALife and its methodology. A brief look into the research program of ALife serves to clarify its goals, methods and subbelds. It is argued that the eld of animat research within ALife follows a program which is considerably diierent from the rest of ALife endeavours. The simulation { non-simulation debate in behavior based robotics is revisited in the...
متن کاملGuided teaching interactions with robots: embodied queries and teaching heuristics
We propose to use concepts from algorithmic teaching to measure and improve human teaching for machine learners. We first investigate input examples produced by human teachers in comparison to optimal or useful teaching sequences, and find that human teachers do not naturally generate the best learning examples. Then we provide humans with teaching guidance in the form of step-by-step teaching ...
