We have made a robot similar to a toddler doll for the Gifted and Talented program. A robot is a machine designed to execute one or more tasks automatically with speed and precision (“Definition Robot”). The robots can be different in their types and tasks they can perform. As for the shape, “these machines can be angular, flat, tubby, spindly, bulbous, and gangly” (“What Is a Robot?”). Today, the most innovative discovery in robotics is android. Android is a robot that is similar to a human. These robots can perform human-like functions. They are based on artificial intelligence that is aimed at replication human mind.

The robot created for the Gifted and Talented class is a baby robot. This robot is based on Android OS. The robot looks like a toddler and can be simply a doll for little kids. However, its main functions are teaching and training. The robot is designed to spend a good time with kids. The time spent with robot allows the teacher to deal with other activities, because the child has fun with the robot. So, the robot provides the kids with control and give the teachers free time. Besides, the baby robot functions like a friend and a teacher at the same time.

While playing with kids, the robot will teach them a set of good things. It will be friendly and benevolent to kids and it will teach the kids to do the same. The robot will teach the kids how to be polite and how to behave right. So, this robot can “model the cognitive capabilities of a toddler” (Romm, “When It’s Not Haunting Your Nightmares”). Also, it will show how to respect other children, parents, and teachers. The kids will learn not to hurt others and do their class work on time. The most important thing is that the robot will perform its tasks friendly with no threatening and discomfort for children. The kid will know what is good and what is bad with the help of the robot. So, the baby robot created for this class is helpful, because it contributes to teaching the kids the good behavior and social rules in a friendly manner.
