The Institute for Personal Robots in Education (IPRE - http://roboteducation.org) applies and evaluates robots as a context for computer science education. IPRE is a joint effort between Georgia Tech and Bryn Mawr College. Our initial effort is targeted at CS-1: To provide curricula, hardware and software for an exciting new approach to introductory computer science. We will present details of our approach and quantitative and qualitative results from courses we have taught. We use Microsoft Robotics Studio and other technologies. Our robot has a target price of $100. IPRE is initially sponsored by Microsoft Research.
