Technology is redefining what it means to live in society and be human. This book assembles research and practice on educational robotics (intelligent machines). Britain and Italy present their practices—with the latter a leading nation in preparing students for the New Industrial Age. Robotics assist three-dimensional development—personal, practical and academic, for improved communication and thinking, needed for higher-level work now that intelligent machines are undertaking routine tasks. Students no longer need drilling in facts, accessed now by the touch of a button, but require greater attention to personal and practical abilities to meet global challenges. Readers are made aware of new learning approaches, to achieve the flexible, broader abilities that aid survival and well-being.
