Introduction:
The International EdTech conference 4.0 is a groundbreaking event of Robotmea Edutech that is
going to be held on June 09, 2023 – June 10, 2023 in Islamabad. The conference aims to promote
education and technology in the country and provide students with the opportunity to showcase
their skills and knowledge in the field of technology innovation to foster entrepreneurship in
Islamic Republic of Pakistan.
The symposium will feature a series of EdTech sessions and keynotes that will cover a wide range
of topics pertaining to Role of Technology in Education. The Keynote sessions will be led by
national and International Information, Communication and Edtech experts who will share their
knowledge and experience with attendees.
The biggest attraction of this Edtech summit is the “Pakistan STEAM Championship” an extra-
ordinary opportunity for young lads to showcase their skillset in the emerging fields of technology
using their existing knowledge of science and mathematics. Students will exhibit their state-of-
the-art technology embedded projects well designed on the principles of Scientific Laws and
Mathematical Principles, each one of it will be a unique solution to a problem. STEAM
Championship category will feature a “Theme Solving” competition to assess the problem
solving, critical thinking, collaborative and creative thinking ability of students. Students with
higher order thinking capabilities will be given an opportunity to problem themselves as Young
Scientist of Pakistan!

The EdTech conference 4.0 will also include national level thrilling and exciting Robotics
competitions for students from schools, colleges, and universities. This competition will allow
students to demonstrate their skills in the emerging technologies such as robotics, Internet of
things (IOT), and Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help and transform the nation towards wisdom
driven economies. The winners of each category in any of the module will get a cash prize of
100,000/- (One lac rupees) Pakistani rupees.

The EdTech conference 4.0 is a unique opportunity for students, teachers, school leaders and
industry patrons to learn nextgen educational methods and to gain limitless exposure on latest
technological innovation and inventions.
This extravaganza will provide the access to people, networking platform, full of exposure and
much more to grow personally and professionally.
1- Robotmea STEAM Championship 2023
The STEAM Championship is a competition that promotes science, technology, engineering,
arts, and math (STEAM) education and encourages students to develop their skills and
knowledge in these fields. In this competition, students have the opportunity to develop
important competencies such as critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and
leadership, which are essential for success in 21st Century learning. We have two streamlines
for this STEAM Championship 2023.

• Theme Solver Competition

• Project Exhibition

Module 1: Theme Solver Competition (Grades 1 to 5)

Welcome to the Theme Solver Competition! This international Edtech conference
is designed to challenge students to showcase their knowledge and skills in
STEAM concepts. In this competition, teams will be assigned a task to complete
based on a given theme, and their work will be evaluated on Bloom Taxonomy
standards, 4 Metro Cs & on the 21st century learning.
Here are the detailed rules for the competition:
Eligibility: The competition is open to all students currently enrolled in any
Robotmea Partnered school having the Primary Year Program. (Grade 1 - Grade

other competition.
Team Formation: Teams can consist of 3-5 students, and each team must have a
team captain who will be the main point of contact throughout the competition.
Task Assignment: Each team will be assigned a task based on a given theme. The
theme will be announced on May 10th, 2023, and teams will have a specific time
frame on the day of competition to complete their tasks.
Evaluation/Judging: The teams' work will be evaluated by the panel of judges on
benchmarks developed by Robotmea Research and Curriculum wing experts to
assess the students on Cognitive Domain, Psychomotor Domain, and Affective

during the competition and may be used for promotional purposes.
Note: It is important to note that only one teacher is allowed to assist students
during this competition, they are not permitted to physically construct or
assemble any part of the design on behalf of the team. The teacher may offer
guidance and advice to the students, but it is the responsibility of the students to
complete the task assigned to them. Any violation of this rule may result in
disqualification of the team from the competition. This rule is put in place to
ensure that the competition is fair and that all teams are evaluated solely based
on their own work and abilities.

to conduct:

School Category: College & University Category:

• RC Race • Robo Sumo

• Soccer-bot Competition • Line Following Robot
• Line Following Robot

Module 1: RC Race (School Category)

RC (Remote Control) Race is an exciting competition where students from
different schools can compete using remote-controlled cars. Participants need to
design and build their own RC cars, which they will race against each other on a
designated track.
• Each team would be comprised of 3 members.

• The racecourse will consist of a track with obstacles. The track will be
marked with lanes and robot will follow it. The obstacles will be placed
along the track, and the robots will navigate it without knocking them
down.
• The time taken by each robot to complete the race will be recorded. The
robot with the fastest time will be declared as the winner.
• Penalties will be given if a robot knocks down an obstacle or leaves its lane.
The penalties will be added to the robot's time.
 • The safety of participants, spectators, and equipment is paramount. The
organizers reserve the right to disqualify any team whose robot poses a
safety risk.
• The participants should behave nicely & and show sportsman spirit during
the competition. Any misconduct in behavior will result in disqualification.
• The judges' decision will be considered as final. Any complaint against the
judge will only be addressed by the chief organizer of the conference.

Module 2: Soccer-bot Competition (School Category)

Soccer-bot competitions are popular events in which single robot compete against
each other in a game of soccer. These competitions are often held at educational
institutions and robotics conferences to promote the study of robotics and artificial
intelligence. If you are planning to participate in a soccer-bot competition, it is
important to familiarize yourself with the rules and guidelines that are typically
followed.
1. Each team is allowed one robot on the field at a time.
2. Robots must be controlled through wireless remote controllers and only one
person can control the robot.
3. Robots must be able to move around the field using wheels or similar means
of propulsion.

the winner.
7. Sides will be changed for both teams on scoring the first goal.
Module 3: Line Follower Robot (School Category)
Line follower robots are a popular type of autonomous robot that is designed to
follow a line or path marked on the floor. These robots are often used in edtech
competitions to teach students about robotics and programming. Please note
down the key rules and guidelines that must be followed when participating in
line-follower robot competitions.
• Robotmea Kits, LEGO MINDSTORMS kits, NXT 2.0, NXT 2.1, Ev3, or similar
kits are allowed in the competition.
• Pre-Assembled kits are not allowed. (i.e. Pololu kits, PID Pre-Designed Kits)
