Creating a new generation of production and service tools with robot education

When a child is just getting started with robots , The best way to learn is “ Imitation teaching ”. Because when the child's physical condition and mental level are limited , It is impossible to learn through other forms , Only through “ imitation ”. What is imitation teaching ？ That is, the children listen to the teacher imparting knowledge in class , Try to keep the teacher's knowledge in your mind . without doubt , In the process , Children are actually learning passively . But there is no denying that , This is also a process of knowledge familiarity and accumulation . As the child grows up , Grow to school age , This way of learning will slowly expose its shortcomings . You will find that the students' thoughts are limited to the teacher's answers and the knowledge framework of the textbook , Gradually become unwilling and afraid to try new methods 、 new things .

At the same time, this imitation learning may also become a kind of learning that destroys the internal motivation , A kind of study for exams , It's not what you want to learn ！ The essence of robot teaching has lost its meaning . Children need a different way of learning —— Trial and error learning ！ It's the individual experience trying and trying and trying and making mistakes . Gradually reduce the error rate , The process of increasing success rate .

The core of trial and error learning is to stimulate children's internal learning motivation , Let the child have a strong need to solve this problem from the heart , Then take the initiative to collect all kinds of data that can help him solve this problem . For example, in the process of robot football game , We ask our children to design a robot that can complete the process of ball protection and propulsion , We must consider how to modify it to stabilize the ball , And be prepared to defend . These requirements will stimulate the child's strong inner desire , How to do this ？ What should the effect be ？ After refitting , Take it to practice to test , If you can't, take it back and modify it , It's revised , Try again . So repeatedly modify 、 practice , Finally achieve the desired results in the hearts of the children , This is much more than any lecture ！ When children are playing with robots , In fact, I'm trying to turn imitation learning into trial and error learning . In the past, students always imitated learning in class , And this kind of imitation learning cannot be said to be bad , But it is not conducive to mobilizing their internal driving force . Trial and error learning gives them a good supplementary way .

When children have strong needs themselves , When you want a robot to perform a task according to its own ideas , Then he takes the initiative to analyze the problem 、 solve the problem , At this moment, his whole mind , The energy is concentrated in this direction , Then his potential will be tapped out .
This is actually the essence of robot education , Let the children realize in the process of playing with robots “ innovation ”, Let them think first , Do it again , Through repeated debugging and modification , Complete your own originality .

With the progress of robot technology , It has become a trend for machines to replace human beings . In principle , In the past, ordinary robots were tools , It is the extension of human hand and foot motor organs , And intelligent robot is the extension of the brain and the replacement of hands and feet . Today's robots can not only easily replace “ Blue collar ” Position ,“ white collar ” Most of the posts are targeted by them . It is predicted that , future 30 During the year, there were 50% Will be replaced . The wide application of intelligent robots , It's not just about robbing people “ job ” So simple , It will also cause profound changes in human society , We need to prepare for the future 、 Make an early and appropriate response .

Previous industrial technological revolutions , Unemployment every time , It will soon be made up for by the new posts . The benefits of the widespread adoption of robots may translate into better jobs , In other words, new jobs will emerge . It certainly requires people to learn new skills , Enhance innovation 、 create 、 Creativity 、 Interpersonal skills 、 Team work ability, etc , Adapt to changes in the labour market , Find new ways to adjust .

For all that , The challenges brought about by the intelligent robot revolution may be unexpected ： First, the new job opportunities brought by the rapid development of intelligent robots may be much less than the jobs they replace , This will cause a lot of unemployment ; Second, human beings will face the challenge of seeking the meaning of life “ The biggest challenge ”, Because work is not just about food and clothing , Also to find the meaning of life , Enter the era of intelligent robots , If your job doesn't need you , Leisure has become a way of life , How to find their own positioning and meaning of life ？

In addition to jobs being replaced by robots , Scientists also worry that robots are more intelligent than humans , I'm especially worried about artificial intelligence designing by itself 、 Self development , It will bring unpredictable danger to mankind . Stephen • Hawking also expressed concern , Instead of worrying about who controls AI , Human beings should be more worried about , Is artificial intelligence willing to be controlled by human beings . This means that we should give full play to the positive energy of robots to serve human society , And take preventive measures , Control the potential risks of artificial intelligence within an acceptable range .

in summary , Robot is a new generation of production and service tools made by human beings , It can take the place of human beings to complete a lot of work so as to benefit human society , Understand the performance of robots , You can give them jobs that are suitable for robots , Human beings can concentrate on developing and focusing on the work that robots can't touch , One of the most important countermeasures is to consciously adjust the direction of education , Optimize the structure of personnel training , As an individual, he should also improve his own ability and quality to actively deal with .
