Abstract
This article discusses how to create an interactive virtual training program
at the intersection of neuroscience, robotics, and computer science for high
school students. A four-day microseminar, titled Swarming Powered by
Neuroscience (SPN), was conducted virtually through a combination of
presentations and interactive computer game simulations, delivered by subject
matter experts in neuroscience, mathematics, multi-agent swarm robotics, and
education. The objective of this research was to determine if taking an
interdisciplinary approach to high school education would enhance the students
learning experiences in fields such as neuroscience, robotics, or computer
science. This study found an improvement in student engagement for neuroscience
by 16.6%, while interest in robotics and computer science improved respectively
by 2.7% and 1.8%. The curriculum materials, developed for the SPN microseminar,
can be used by high school teachers to further evaluate interdisciplinary
instructions across life and physical sciences and computer science.
