#RoboEduc17

At a time when the digital sciences, computer science and robotics are in the school curriculum, there are many questions about the objectives and the implementation of activities to achieve them. Robotics is a privileged vehicle for the teaching of digital sciences, the Robotics and Education Colloquium, organized by Inria Bordeaux Sud-Ouest, is an opportunity to exchange robotic activities for education, feedback (mainly oriented towards Poppy and Thymio), and innovations to come.

This 3rd edition of the colloquium will be held on Tuesday, July 18, 2017 in the afternoon, before the opening of the World Scratch 2017 Conference in Bordeaux from July 18 to 21. The colloquium is exceptionally shortened this year, with some presentations being integrated into the Scratch Conference itself. It consists of two stages: a series of quick talks followed by demos.

Presentations will be translated from French to English simultaneously (by an interpreter and headsets) if enough participants request it. If you wish to benefit from it, please mention it when you register.

We remind you that while the colloquium is free, registration remains nonetheless mandatory.

All colloquium participants are also invited to attend the Opening Night of the World Scratch 2017 Conference, which will be held at Cap Sciences, on the same day, without having to register.

The colloquium takes place at ENSEIRB-MATMECA, 1 avenue du Dr Albert Schweitzer, 33402 Talence. It is the same place as the Scratch Conference itself.

Registration closed (on July 14)
