Peru High School – Peru, New York
Peru High School in Peru, NY uses Dobot Magician products in their Technology & Engineering classes. The classroom is a hybrid instructional space and material processing lab with 16-24 students per class. Dobot products are used as supplemental experiences that are built into the Engineering, Manufacturing, and Robotics curriculums.The Dobot Magician gives students industry grade experiences that mimic what is used in technical fields at a scale that fits in the classroom (with both size and price).
Peru CSD has recently used Dobot products during distance learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Students were able to send codes into their teacher in Live online classroom settings, design and 3D print custom end effectors, and create an automated workcell all from their homes. Dobot allowed hands-on learning to continue to be hands-on even at a distance. Visit Leif Sorgule’s website for free resources about distance learning and technology education: www.sorgule.com
“Students are highly unlikely to pick a career path that is unfamiliar to them. An introduction to industrial robotics can spark an interest in the next generations workforce!”-Leif Sorgule
