In this episode, Mika Barkan talks about her experience teaching ROS to undergraduated students at Bar-Ilan University from Israel.

She will explain some problems she is facing:

• What is she teaching
• How her students install ROS in their computers
• Why she doesn’t uses real robots for teaching ROS
• What are the limitations she is facing for teaching ROS

Selected quote from the interview:

Our students do not program in robots but in Gazebo simulations, so they can experience various types of robots. We provide to students a lot of exercises to practice.
