Lego Workshop at Asian U.

As part of the 4-week long English Summer camp, 45 lucky Asian University Campers have spent three days on a Lego robotic workshop. The workshop, led by Mr Rak, from the educational division of Gammaco, and two of his colleagues, has permitted the youngsters to learn about robots and to make their own. They have been using educational Lego kits that include a programmable robot unit, and a set of Lego pieces to enhance their creations.

The students worked in teams of three each with a basic Lego kit and a pc. They were able to programme the base unit to move around in different directions, and at different speeds, and then fit it with wheels and other appendages. By the end of the first morning, the students already had their robots travelling around. They then had to refine the programmes, and solve some small problems. The students all enjoyed the three days, and Asian U is very grateful to Mr Rak and his team for bringing the Robolab equipment and leading the workshop.



Another robotics workshop is planned for the second Asian U Summer Camp that starts on 16 April.
