We do this by creating motives and ways for schools to obtain free infrastructure, by supporting teachers with free, continuous hands-on training, as well as by developing open-access lesson plans for elementary and secondary teachers.[\/vc_message][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_message]<strong>Cost per participant<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The cost per participant is 250\u20ac, including course attendance, coffee and use of robotics equipment. <u>A discount of 40% will be available for Greek participants.<\/u><\/p>\n<p><strong>Dates<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>25-28 of June 2020.[\/vc_message][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1580297026367{background-color: #dd9933 !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Brief history\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Our 12-year history began in 2008, when the first, informal core team of friends, stakeholders and supporters was formed, sharing the common vision of introducing educational robotics and STEM into the educational reality of Greece. Even at that time, the forming community of WRO Hellas was nationwide and included academics, school counselors, elementary and secondary teachers, and parents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">The coordinated steps taken ever since by like-minded people from all over Greece, achieved to turn robotics from an unknown concept, into a strong educational trend that attracted more and more Greek schools. Building on a comprehensive methodology whereby knowledge was widely spread to all teachers and students, we have managed to quickly improve the quality level of Greek teams participating in the World Robot Olympiad and achieve some notable rankings and accomplishments that have since put Greece at the forefront of educational robotics and STEM at a global level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Greece has ranked 2nd, 3rd and 4th place at the World Robot Olympiad (2015, 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019), performing best at the Football, Open and Regular categories. What is more, at the 2019 World Robot Olympiad held in Hungary, the teams from Greece collected the most medals \u2013 along with Russia \u2013 among 423 teams from 73 countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1580297037677{background-color: #8224e3 !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Introduction to Educational Robotics: LEGO Education MINDSTORMS EV3<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><em>Instructor: Constantinos Tsatsaronis<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">The LEGO Education MINDSTORMS EV3 platform is a leading educational robotics solution, having been selected by WRO as a primary means of participating in the World Robot Olympiad. In this introductory course using LEGO Education MINDSTORMS Education EV3 Software, we will learn how the robot moves and turns, how we use sensors, variables, loop and switch, how to send data (DataWires), how to make our own blocks, calibration of censors, math blocks and logic blocks, as well as basic line sequence. We will learn to use parallel beams, arrays, and files to make more sophisticated line followings and turns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Introduction to Arduino &amp; Raspberry processors and compatibility<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><em>Instructor: TBA<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">In this course we will explore how we can extend the functionality of LEGO Education MINDSTORMS EV3, by combining it with open source microcontrollers and microcomputers, such as the Arduino &amp; Raspberry Pi.
