| Scenario summary |
We first taught the Robot, Clone,
Human curriculum to the participants over the course of three hours of
instruction. Then, on the day of the Tele-Actor field test, the
participants learned how microarray experiments work by working with the
Tele-Actor to complete four tasks. These included: finding the microarray
robot, identifying the robot’s controller, using the robot to spot DNA
onto slides, and displaying and answering questions about the experiment’s
results. Click here to
