News and views about Roamer and educational robotics. Laquo; Roamer’s Full House. The Learning Tower of PISA. April 3, 2014. I have been listening to commentators respond to the latest PISA results in problem-solving.

News and views about Roamer and educational robotics. Laquo; Listening to teachers. I’m a smarty pants. October 22, 2012. A little later I watched a video of two Capuchin monkeys who had to work together to release six nuts from a jar. The monkey holding the jar then fairly divided the nuts giving 3 nuts to the other monkey. The video was showing how animals work together to solve a problem, but I was amazed at how the money could correctly divine 6 nuts by two. You have to log in to Comment.

News and views about Roamer and educational robotics. Laquo; A costly mistake? December 4, 2012. To use the current lexicon) miracles really do happen.
