FlipRobot Smart City Autonomous Driving Robotics Program offers flexible learning options to students interested in robotics and coding. Learn and practice robotics, coding, smart city solution design, and the most essential soft skills for their future success (e.g. problem solving and computational thinking) in a practical and immersive learning environment.
The Importance of STEAM and Robotics Learning
In the next 30 years, 75% of the fastest-growing professions will require STEAM-related skills. To successfully navigate through the fast-changing environment, students today need to master STEAM skills as well as a range of critical survival skills (sometimes called ‘soft’ skills).
The global trend of embracing robotics learning to implement STEAM education has been proven to be very successful. Robotics learning consists of five pivotal areas: construct, control, interact, kinetic energy and artificial intelligence. Robotics learning is rich with multidisciplinary principles and is a hands-on way of developing students’ critical skills, such as problem-solving and critical thinking.
