E. Bridgeman Bridgeman · DOAJ (DOAJ: Directory of Open Access Journals) · 2008
Will the adoption of robots by the education system mirror its earlier adoption of Personal Computers (PCs)? A future in which education may need to accommodate robots is explored. Examples of current advances in robotics are given which suggest that there is a realistic potential for robots to successfully contribute within the four functional areas of an educational system: learner-teacher, knowledge-problem, control subsystems and support subsystems.
