Seed project: Programming social robots - a tool for learning in the multilingual primary school
The aim is to contribute to teachers' capacity to work with programming social robots in classrooms with a high degree of language diversity. We want to explore how we can utilize interaction between students and robots in the students own language create opportunities to develop programming skills.

What is a seed project?
A seed project is a minor project funded by a knowledge environment or a research group at the university. The aim is to launch and promote excellent research. Depending on the financier, a seed project may be to idenfify new or deepen existing collaborations, preferably cross-disciplinary ones, to explore possible research issues in a feasibility study, to collect empirical material, or to write an application for external funding.
