A Study On Course Design And Resource Development Of "Robot Education" For Normal Students

With the technology developing in an amazingly rapid speed,robots begin to enter our classes.In an era of the Innovative and Maker Education,the trend of robot educatio n in primary and secondary school is still growing with full stretch.However,currently,primary and secondary schools are in shortage of the staff of robot education,which in a sense restricts the development of robot education.Normal university focuses its attenti on on the basic education and cultivating primary and secondary teachers in the future.T herefore,normal university has to shoulder the responsibility of cultivating robotic teach ers in primary as well as secondary schools.The most common way of cultivating the ta lent is to aquire knowledge and skills through courses.Now,the curriculum which trains the future robot education teachers of the primary and secondary schools is not so perfe ct that it is still in an exploratory stage.The aim of this study is to deeply understand the robot education through the "Rob ot Education" curriculum design and resource development research,and to lay the foun dation for fostering the robot education teachers of primary and secondary schools.The paper analyzes the needs of the primary and secondary robot education in the aspects of teaching,laboratory and related competition,at the same time the learners of the primar y and secondary robot education who themselves may become robot education teachers in the future.And based on the theory of the Taylor's curriculum development principle s,the objectives,the content and the implementation conditions of the robot education c urriculum are initially formed.According to the curriculum objectives,the curriculum c ontent and the organizational structure are refined.Choosing the open source hardware platform of arduino,the supporting experimental items are designed.The conditions of the implementation of the robot education curriculum(laboratory,teacher and curriculu m resources)are analyzed,and two typical cases are selected,which are Multi-ultrasoni c obstacle avoidance car and mobile phone Bluetooth remote control car,to develop the curriculum and apply to the school curriculum practice and evaluation,then the feedbac k and analysis are made at the same time.Through the practice,it shows that "robot educ ation" curriculum design and resource development research is not only conducive to cultivating students' creative ability,but also it helps to make learners have a profound un derstanding of robot education,furthermore,it is conducive to train the robot education teachers.The construction of curriculum resources should be improved,the three-dimen sional curriculum resources are under construction and the plan to apply the curriculum resources system to practice has been made.All in all,the purpose of the paper is to ma ke a contribution to the promotion and development of the robot education.
