DOROTHY: Integrating Graphical Programming with Robotics to Stimulate Interest in Computing Careers (ALICE '13)

Abstract This paper describes DOROTHY, a novel educational tool that enhances the Alice 3D programming environment to enable bidirectional communication of sensor data and commands with robots capable of autonomous operation. Users without any programming experience can quickly create graphical routines consisting of one or more simulated robots in virtual worlds. Command dictionaries and socket streams enable real-time translation of these routines to software for synchronous or asynchronous control of sensing and actuation on one or more mobile robots with on-board sensing, resulting in adaptive behavior in the real-world. Multiple execution scenarios are described to illustrate the capabilities of the educational tool. Furthermore, the paper outlines a curriculum that can be used with the tool to teach core concepts of computing, concurrent execution and real-world sensing to middle school and high school students, thus stimulating interest in computing.

About National Digital Library of India (NDLI)
NDLI logo

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
