Out of Belgian schools has arrived an ₤ 85 (125 €) robot buggy that the designer hopes can reverse the decline in the study of electronics and technology across Europe and, potentially, wider.
Like many in the engineering teaching fraternity, the author is increasingly aware that electronics – and most engineering and science related activities – fail to attract young people. To people who have grown up with a fascination for technology this is a great shame and it really is very strange when you consider that young people are fascinated by all things electronic – like i-pods, digital cameras and mobile phones. But for some reason our schools fail to capitalise on this interest and attract young people to technical careers.
