This project tries to identify the current robotics curriculum and robotics applications, and help advance the education of these unique machines. By first outlining the current robotics uses, we were able to determine where the industry was moving towards and how current education should be molded to accompany this change. Our pedagogical review is meant to help guide educators in forming a new curriculum based off of the success of the Nano technology fields that underwent a similar transformation.
