Once upon a time, robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) systems were largely the stuff of science fiction. If they appeared in “real life,” it was primarily in the most advanced, technology-driven enterprises, those to which most ordinary working people had little, if any, connection.

Today, however, the situation has dramatically changed. Robotics and AI are now infiltrating almost every aspect of daily life. They’re shaping how we communicate and learn. They’re transforming the practice of medicine. And they’re even informing how we accomplish the most mundane of daily tasks from banking to shopping to cleaning the house.

STEM Resources for Budding Engineers

By Katie Brenneman

There’s a dearth of good engineers out there. As technology evolves, so does its complexity. Just as important as maintaining the momentum of technological progress is equipping the next generation to pick up where the last one left off.

Part of our obligation today is creating and compiling keystone resources that will aid young engineers in their journey to achieve new breakthroughs. Herein lies the fundamental growth pillars of forward-thinking engineers in various verticals: science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).  Something we must contend with is building up young engineers to be both technically and professionally proficient. Let’s explore a few perspectives and resources that can serve to educate budding engineers and prepare them for the world of tomorrow.

Promoting Diversity and Inclusion in Robotics

By Carol Grace

Compared to other careers, underrepresentation is rampant in STEM-related roles. According to job statistics by Pew Research Center, Black and Hispanic workers remain underrepresented in various STEM occupations, only making up 8-9% of STEM jobs. This share is lower in specific job clusters, such as engineering and architecture, with only 5% of black workers making up the total workforce. While women comprise 50% of the STEM workforce, 74% are healthcare practitioners and technicians — making other fields vastly outnumbered by men. With robotics highly dependent on computers and engineering, it’s unsurprising that diversity in the industry is at an all-time low.

Anyone in the education sector knows that new technologies are poised to revolutionize the traditional classroom.

In the past few years, educational institutions have adapted to a new normal brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Parents, students, teachers and administrators had to remain flexible, adjust to virtual learning environments and adopt new digital technologies to facilitate learning.

Although the industry is still reeling from the adverse effects of the pandemic, the global disruption sparked major growth in one relevant sector: education technology (ed tech).

A primary example of ed tech is artificial intelligence (AI), which has already proven itself as a highly useful, effective tool with various applications and benefits. How important is AI in supporting the rise of the ed tech market? Will more K-12 and secondary education institutions adopt AI-based solutions in the future?
