Content preview:  This was a very fun workshop! Steve presented it virtually
   with me and Randy on site in the lab. The idea is from DrTechniko - How to
   train your robot. Steve had the handout translated into Spanish. Randy and
   me worked as "robots" for the participants. It was a great experience, even
   our lack of the spanish language was not to our disadvantage, since we robots
   understood only a very restrictive vocabulary. After being trained to walk
   in a square the task was for the participants to come up with a more complex
   script for walking to a table, grab a bottle and bring it back. That resulted
   in different kinds of scripts and, as expected, participants started to make
   up more complex commands for the robots. That was fun, but not the last of
   it. Steve had an Etoys project prepared where everyone now could create scripts
   for an Etoys robot, based on the experience with the human robots. This is
   a very motivating activity for the classroom! [...]
