Abstract
In this paper we consider development of interest among master students and young scientists involved in robotics. One of the key factors influencing a human involvement in learning and work processes is an ability to absorb knowledge in his/her usual way.
If a teacher presents a new theme in a way, not peculiar to student thinking, then the understanding process breaks and, as a consequence, the interest falls down. Similar problems can arise in communication of young scientists being a part of an international laboratory.
To “speak the same language” it is important to determine individual features of thinking of students and laboratory staff and organize exchange of information appropriately. To solve this problem we propose two approaches based on usage of meta programs (MP) and person’s needs. The first method refers to increase of student interest in acquiring new knowledge. The second one is devoted to motivation young scientists and organization of their work in the international laboratory “Nonlinear Adaptive Control Systems”. It is shown that the use of proposed approaches increases the number of students interested in self-realization in the field of robotics.
