OUR MOTTO
Our motto “Discover Fun Engineering™” should be self explanatory. However, just for you to get the gist further – consider this: many youth and some adults seem to think that engineers wear safety helmets, big yellow boots and go around building buildings – that’s only partially correct!
The engineers previously mentioned are civil engineers – the heroes who build the buildings we live comfortably in! There are many types of engineers, each classified according to the work that they do.
Unfortunately, a huge amount of people also think that engineering is a boring field that is choked with calculations and theory – they’re also only partly correct. Unless you’re studying pure Calculus, the most useful calculation you’ll need is good ol’ Ohm’s Law (you know, the V=IR thing).
Hence, we put Fun and Engineering together and hence came up with a recipe for youth (and grown-ups alike) to: Discover Fun Engineering™
At Creative Robotics™ Learning Center, we promote students to have fun with other students as well as have hands-on (not virtual) experience in building simple to advanced hobby robots (not multi-million dollar top-secret beta prototypes), where they’ll learn through trial & error the ‘sense’ of what-can-be-done-and-what-cannot-be-done with the resources they have.
Needless to say, when exposed to these professional environments at young ages, imagine how that individual’s view of professionalism (in any field, not just in engineering) will grow and expand – leading him/her to push his/her skill, communication, creativity and knowledge boundaries rapidly!!! Try to imagine this – our (generation’s) “hi-tech” today will become their (children’s) “prehistoric” tomorrow! This may seem funny, but it is the truth.
Robotics and the concept of the PR (
