Practical group sessions
We run workshops where participants build and test.
Choose a robotics or AI task with MazTech. We plan the session around your group, the equipment available and what participants will make or try.
Plan a workshop for your group
One workshop or several sessions on a project.
Tell us who is taking part before choosing the format.
A group meeting robotics for the first time needs a different starting point from people who already use sensors and code. Share the participants' experience and the practical task you have in mind. We use that information to discuss a format that fits the group.
A workshop on one topic
A single session centres on a focused activity. Participants might work with movement, connect a sensor reading to an action or try an AI tool on an agreed task. We decide the activity and equipment with you before the day.
A sequence of group sessions
Several meetings can build on the same project. The group has time to try a change, discuss what happened and continue the work in the next session. For this format, see our tailored technical programmes.
A session for an existing project
Bring the project question and a list of the equipment you already use. We agree a manageable task and the support needed during the session. Existing code or project files help us understand where the participants are starting.
Work with movement, sensing or an AI task.
For robot movement, the activity connects mechanical parts, power and control through a small physical task. Participants can see how the parts relate to the behaviour they are trying to produce.
For sensing, the task links an input to an action. We work with programming and the selected sensors so participants can try a change and observe the response.
For AI, we agree the tools and suitable data before the session. Participants try a defined task, then examine the output and its limits. The useful discussion is about what the tool produced and what still needs a person's judgement.
We delivered Robotics 101 at SEF Academy.
Sheraa booked two Robotics 101 sessions for SEF Academy. We delivered them on 1 and 2 February 2025, with an English session and an Arabic session.
The task determines what participants keep.
A workshop can end in a working task, a tested idea or project files. We name the intended output in the scope so the group and organiser know what the session is working towards. The equipment and available time determine how much of the task fits.
If participants will continue the project afterwards, tell us at the planning stage. That helps define which files need to be kept and what the organiser expects at the end of the session.
We set the duration with you.
Send the available slot, including any fixed start or finish time. We discuss whether the task fits one workshop or needs several meetings. A longer project should be scoped across those meetings, with a clear purpose for each session.
The proposal records the activity, equipment scope and agreed output. If the group size or available devices change, tell us before the session so we can review the plan with you.
Send the group details and the equipment list.
Include the age range and group size, the participants' experience and any access needs. Tell us the venue, preferred date and available time. For a robotics session, list the equipment on site. For an activity using software, tell us which devices the group can use.
Let us know whether the group will share equipment or work with individual devices. If the session builds on an existing project, send a short description of what participants have already made. That gives us a concrete starting point when choosing the next task and discussing the work that fits in the session.
You can start without a chosen topic. Describe the group and what you want them to try. We will work through the activity with you before putting the session scope in writing.
