Humanoid robots expand possibilities in public education

In 2024, Brazilian public schools face challenges such as high dropout rates, lack of vacancies, and insufficient technological infrastructure. Entrepreneur Jailson Ferreira da Silva proposes the introduction of humanoid robots and robotics kits in classrooms as a solution to improve these indicators. Humanoid robots are programmable machines capable of speaking, moving, and responding to questions, while the kits allow students to assemble and program mechanical devices. According to Ferreira, these tools spark curiosity, facilitate learning of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics concepts, and can be adapted to serve students with disabilities, expanding inclusion. Among the highlighted benefits are the stimulation of logical reasoning and solving structured problems through interaction with technology.
