"Programming is child’s play." That’s the motto of our new German cloud platform Open Roberta which simplifies programming for small robots for both teachers and students.Fraunhofer IAIS have been collaborating since the spring of 2013 on ways to simplify programming of these little robots. The aim was to minimize technical hurdles for both students and the 1,000 certified 'Roberta Teachers'. Our solution with Open Roberta is to put the software in the cloud and open source it. Google.org provided Fraunhofer IAIS the necessary EUR1 million in funding to develop the new program. In parallel with the launch of the platform, LEGO Education introduced 160 all-new kits to be given in ten-packs to schools in the 16 German states. open-roberta.org . To get started with programming, just visit the Open Roberta Lab at lab.open-roberta.org ... and unleash the robots!Posted by Sabine Frank, policy counsel for Child Welfare and Media Literacy
