Issues on implementing robotics course in Ukraine

Abstract

Robotics has reliably taken its rightful place in all areas of human activity. Without it, it is now difficult to imagine the development of industry, astronautics, medicine, etc. In this regard, much attention is paid to it in education. Not being a separate subject, but an interdisciplinary course, it is taught in schools and extracurricular educational institutions of Ukraine. The author poses problems and suggests ways to solve them based on his own experience of conducting robotics classes in one of the city's clubs. Even during a short period of work, he saw those features of conducting classes that need to be taken into account at all levels of the functioning of the education system. This includes material support, training of teaching staff, and organizational forms of educational activities. It is interesting that he managed to pay attention to the age and psychological characteristics of students who expressed interest in studying robotics.
