The call was for children in the autism spectrum and the challenge was to build a robot and plan it. Young and older students have managed to accomplish the mission, and now know that there is an activity that is exclusively addressed to them. This is Roboautism, a standard Robotics Experimental Laboratory, specially designed for children in autism spectrum, which today held an open event to inform their children and parents a week before they operate normally.

“When we do robotics in the departments I teach in formal public education schools, I saw that the children in the spectrum were more committed, more interesting and worked with other children much better than we teach other IT objects,” the Athenian -Macedonian -Macedonian agency said.

With twenty years of experience in education and in recent years in Robotics, she was inspired, observing both her students and her son, who is also in the spectrum of autism. “Looking at my son, I found out how much he helps him when he is doing activity with children who have the same abilities and how he gets from his team, transferring them to the school class. In addition, he has greatly improved his social skills, “Ms Strikou stressed, saying that the workshops would focus more on teamwork and relationships anyway. “Robotics could learn a child wherever he was. The point is to develop social skills, confidence and even friendships, that is, to create a bond that then can take it in his daily life, ”he explained.

Roboautism utilizes technological tools as a means of supporting and enhancing important skills of children in the spectrum of autism, such as social interaction, self -expression, concentration, creative thinking. Through group activities, free experimentation and guided learning, it gives children the opportunity to explore the world of robotics in a context fully adapted to their needs. Children from 9 to 21 years old responded to the open event, who will be divided into sections of the three people who will operate every Saturday in Evosmos.
