South Korea trials robot teaching assistants in nursery schools
South Korean capital Seoul has started trialling small robots as teaching aids in kindergartens -- a pilot project the city government says will help prepare the next generation for a hi-tech future.
The "Alpha Mini" is just 24.5 centimetres tall and can dance, lead sing-a-longs, recite stories and even teach kung-fu moves as children mimic its push-ups and one-legged balances.
