Washington: Researchers have presented a new teaching tool called CoWriter that makes a robot play the role of the peer who needs to be taught. The programme, presented at the Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) in Portland, is based on learning by teaching, a recognised principle in pedagogy.
Scientists developed progressive writing algorithms and implemented them on an existing robot model - a 58 cm tall humanoid, designed to be likeable and interact with humans. It is also possible to programme the robot so that it addresses the particular difficulties of a student. With these algorithms, the machine can clumsily draw words on demand, and then gradually improve.
