system where children teach robot students how to write, and in the process improve their own handwriting skills. The prototype system, called CoWriter,
A humanoid robot, designed to be likeable and interact with humans, The robot recognizes the word and tries to write it, with its attempt appearing on a tablet. The child then identifies and corrects the robot's errors by re-writing the word or specific letters. So the child as a teacher tends to commit itself to help the robot. And this is what we call in psychology. This can have a knock-on effect for their entire education and it can help them regain self-esteem and motivation. The team hopes their research will be the basis for an innovative use for robotics which addresses a widespread challenge in education. The finally, The key point is the robot plays a role that the teacher cannot play, that is the bad writer. But it doesn't replace in any way the teacher; the teacher is still the one who decides the kind of mistakes the robot could do, should do, has to do to address the specific difficulties, trouble that the given child face.
