AACE 2012: Your Mission is to Collaboratively Program a LEGO Robot via a Virtual World
1. Your Mission is to Collaboratively Program a
LEGO Robot via a Virtual World

2. Programming robots in virtual worlds.
âą Provides closed, highly defined tasks.
âą Level of difficulty can be quantified.
âą Task difficulty = the minimum number of discrete maneuvers (action +
direction) required to successfully navigate a given maze (Barker and Ansorge,
2007).
âą Tasks can be replicated (same level of difficulty but different maneuvers).
âą Provoke behaviors and communicative exchanges which could be located on a
framework for analysis.
âą Science awareness for youth + citizens = âJapan recoveryâ
3. Research aim: Design an evidence-
based framework of learning for
tasks of measurable complexity in
virtual worlds.

Our current developments. \nRobot trail + Bloom’s iPad . \nStudents select knowledge and cognitive process at periodic intervals. Need training.\nConnects to csv server then an Applescript will import automatically to Excel.\n
