Educational Robots - A New Companion, Play with imaginaries, drawings and NAO
In this workshop we invite the participants to explore their own conceptualizations of what robots are and can do  with us through a play with our own imaginaries, discussed and commented on by Dr., Ph.D.  Jamie Wallace. We shall look at children's imaginaries in a Danish context and discuss them up against the participants robot imaginaries in Prague. We shall furthermore explore what a sociable educational robot is and can do through the example of the NAO-robot and its interactions with us.
