Designing Training Programs to Introduce Emerging Technologies to Future Workers—A Pilot Study Based on the Example of Artificial Intelligence Enhanced Robotics

Implementing an Emerging Technology (ET) is a difficult task due to people lacking ET-related knowledge and skills or having skeptical and negative attitudes towards the ET. As learners construct their understanding about an ET and develop related skills by actually passing through the ET Innovation...
