Vlog Challenge

All schools have been challenged to make a vlog of what they do with their own robot. Submitting a vlog for this challenge is extended until January 31. ,,This can be about assembling the robot, but also about what the students teach their technical friend'', explains Bas de Nooijer of Innovatiecluster Drachten. ,,A meeting between Santa Claus and EDU robot is of course also a nice vlog item. Or how students practice the table of 10 together with the robot." All vlogs are collected on the Facebook page of EDU-robotics. ,,We will choose a top 5 from all entries. We will announce three winners during the event. They all get an extra robot buddy for the classroom and an exclusive 'meet & greet' with André Kuipoers. The winning class will also receive an exclusive tour of Phillips in Drachten. There the students can see real industrial robots at work!'' Upload another vlog? then do that here.
