15th Workshop on Robotics in Education – WRE 2024

Robotics motivates and inspires people of all ages and education levels. In fact, many researchers have already shown that students get more interested and excited about learning several topics when robotics is involved in the learning process. As so, the use of robotics in education has gained great interest over the last decade. The Workshop on Robotics in Education is a forum for discussing scientifical, technical, educational, and other aspects of the usage of robotics in the learning process. The 15th edition of WRE (2024) will be held from 13th to 15th of November jointly with Brazilian Symposium on Robotics at the Centro de Convenções Goiânia located in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil.
The event will include technical sessions of an oral presentation of full papers and technical lectures of recognized importance in the area. WRE will take place in Goiânia, Goiás, Brazil from November 13 to 15, 2024 at Centro de Convenções Goiânia, Rua 4, 1400 – Setor Central, Goiânia – GO, Brasil. 74025-020
