These trends are made clear in a study conducted bythe market research firm, Metra Martech, “Positive Impact of Industrial Robots onEmployment”1. Many repetitive, low-skilled jobs are already being supplanted by technology.However, a number of studies have found that in the aggregate, the robotics industry is creatingmore jobs than the number of jobs lost to robots. For example, the International Federation ofRobotics (IFR) estimates that robotics directly created 4

A possible list ofobjectives and program outcomes, which was used in the creation of this proposedcurriculum, is included in Appendix D.

Computer modeling also reinforces the theme that the same small number of principles can be used to predict a wide variety of behaviors. The VPython models also produce 3D graphics that enable visualization of complex phenomena.Matter & Interactions is currently used at several large U.S. institutions.
