摘要:With great pleasure I would like to present this issue devoted to Robotics in Education. This topic brings together ex- perts from academia, schools, and industry to present new trends, practical experience, and the latest innovations and advances in educational activities. Robotics is widely used on all levels of education from preschool up to the university level. It is taught as a main subject but also used as a tool to visualize problems from other areas of science. This task may be seen relatively easy to realize as robotics is very complex, encompassing mechanics, electronics, control, and software engineering. However, it requires a lot of invention to clearly present a problem and utilize robotic technology in the ac- ceptable form. Robotics is also very attractive and entertaining; recently we can find a lot of competitions for robots and with robots. Therefore, the term 'learning through playing' becomes true.
