Introduction
of Digital
Technologies
Syllabus
Why robots in education
It shows students how to solve problems in the “real world”
Teaches algorithmic thinking in a STEM (and STEAM) context
Students work with “real world data”
Computer coding = Giving a directive to a computer.
What is AI or Artificial Intelligence?
Any device that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximise its chance of successfully achieving its goals.

Case Study - Altino the Robot Car – Saeon Co. South Korea
Teaching coding in 9 countries - schools & universities since 2014
Countries – South Korea, USA, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, India, Philippines, Dubai, Vietnam
Programmable AI robot car.
All-in-one - can easily be carried from classroom to classroom; simply add additional hardware for advanced languages:
Arduino platform
Raspberry Pi
Webcam
The students have FUN playing with robots!!!
Used for early learning, Primary School and High School
Has many sensors (including infrared and light), led matrix, music capability
International Robotics Competition – South Korea
6 “ready to teach” curricula in 6 different programming languages – for teachers
New feature
Outcomes South Korea – coding compulsory, Altino taught coding in:
64 high schools (Years 7-12)
4 primary schools (Years 1-6)
19 universities
6 education institutions run by government
TOTAL: 93 SCHOOLS + MORE IN 2019
Anecdotes – featured on Geek Beat, USA
USA – Government of Hawaii endorsement
“Altino has been incorporated into the
city of Daejon’s school curriculum. As a
result, Daejon has become the top
coding district in the entire country.
These classes are part of a statewide
effort to reform the educational system
and create a technologically skilled
student body. These efforts are greatly
appreciated and will prepare our keiki
for the future”

Usually they are “non tech-savvy”
Teachers facilitate learning of the students.
They may be “non tech-savvy”
New curriculum is designed and provided for Team Managers

Australian primary schools – 4 month pilot 2018
How?
1. Class teacher teaching in classroom or hall – Years 3, 5 and 6
2. Technology teacher teaching Years 3 and up in separate STEM classes
Findings
3 different classes could be run successfully in one day – robot 6 hours of charge
Students had fun – including girls
Learning in 2 ways:
• Teacher-driven instruction following Code with Altino Curriculum
• Each module self-taught with teacher guidance (follow with iPad)
Teachers cut and paste own content, activities with Altino
Successfully taught coding in Scratch language to point where students could create their own
projects and control Altino
Optimal learning occurred with 1 robot between 2 students

Today’s students
Will witness human life on Mars in their lifetime
May travel to outer space
Do not know what it was like with no internet or smart phones
Many of their future careers will use some form of software programming and/or managing data
Part of the Netflix generation – Expectations:
Instant availability of entertainment content
Instant availability of any content via the internet
Our role as educators
Teach students to be technology masters, not just users (via computer programming)
Inspire confidence in new technologies, computer coding and STEM
Think more about what YOU will gain from change and new technologies, rather than what you may lose
Not simply deliver content. Use teaching skills e.g. coaching and facilitation, to:
Encourage teamwork, problem solving, learning from mistakes, persistence
Teach analytical and critical thinking to manage content
Teach social skills and ethics
Highly Recommended Reference:
Future social changes in Artificial Intelligence Technology, Korea Institute of Science & Technology, Dr Kim Yun Jung. 2016
By learning how to create software using
AI robotics,
we are empowering our students to
solve problems,
and translate them to the physical world.
