Vink, Isabelle C. de; Tolboom, Jos L. J.; Beekum, Olivier van – Informatics in Education, 2023
Due to technological advancements, robotics is findings its way into the classroom. However, workload for teachers is high, and teachers sometimes lack the knowledge to implement robotics education. A key factor of robotics education is peer learning, and having students (near-)peers teach them robotics could diminish workload. Therefore, this…

Fatini Jisma Fakaruddin; Edy Hafizan Mohd Shahali; Rohaida Mohd Saat – Asia Pacific Education Review, 2024
Hands-on activities in science learning are beneficial in enhancing creative thinking in students. However, scant studies have probed the nature of creative thinking developed by hands-on activities, particularly among primary school students and further investigation is thus mandated. Therefore, this study aims to explore the creative thinking…

Leonard, Jacqueline; Djonko-Moore, Cara; Francis, Krista R.; Carey, Aylin S.; Mitchell, Monica B.; Goffney, Imani D. – Canadian Journal of Science, Mathematics and Technology Education, 2023
This paper examines the context for developing computational thinking (CT), computational participation (CP), and spatial reasoning among predominantly Black elementary students in grades 5 and 6, who attended a public school in the urban fringe of a large city in the Eastern United States. A case study is presented as the method to examine two…

Zhong, Baichang; Liu, Xiaofan; Huang, Yu – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
Robotics Education (RE) is viewed as a tool to narrow the gender gap in STEM fields, especially for promoting girls' learning. As an emerging and potential model in RE, Pair Learning (PL) is different from Individual Learning (IL), which is impacted by many factors. Among them, social factors need to be further explored. Therefore, this study…

Kim, Young Rae; Park, Mi Sun; Tjoe, Hartono – International Journal of Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology, 2021
In recent years, mathematics classrooms in the U.S. and around the world have seen an increasing integration of educational robotics with interest from both students and teachers. Through their robotics coding activities, students in the present study discovered the concepts of special angle pairs in geometry--namely, complementary and…

Nemiro, Jill E. – Journal of Research in Childhood Education, 2021
Educators now recognize the importance of providing students early on with practice to build necessary 21st-century work-related skills, such as collaboration. School robotics programs are increasingly being used to meet the goals of STEM standards-based content assessment and the development of collaboration skills. However, limited…

Abdullah Koray; Behice Hilal Uzuncelebi – Journal of Education in Science, Environment and Health, 2023
The study explored the effects of robotic-assisted applications on the variables of academic achievement and problem-solving skills in the "Propagation of Light" unit of the 5th grade science course. The study employed the pretest-posttest control group design, one of the quasi-experimental methods. The study sample consist of 36 5th…

Zhong, Baichang; Wang, Yanxia – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2021
Pair learning (PL) in robotics education is derived from pair programming, and impacted by many factors. Two important factors were identified including roles assignment and learning styles in this study. The roles assignment involved Driver-Navigator Pair and Software-Hardware Pair. For the learning style, the dimension of active/reflective was…

Stewart, William H.; Baek, Youngkyun; Kwid, Gina; Taylor, Kellie – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
Recently educational robotics has expanded into curriculum beyond traditional STEM fields, and which can also be used to foster computational thinking (CT) skills. Prior research has shown numerous interdisciplinary benefits related to CT, however, these influential factors have often been investigated with relatively few variables. This study…

Newton, Kristie J.; Leonard, Jacqueline; Buss, Alan; Wright, Christopher G.; Barnes-Johnson, Joy – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2020
This mixed methods study examined how engagement in robotics and game design influenced students' self-efficacy, STEM attitudes, and computational thinking (CT) skills. Predominantly African-American students engaged in engineering and computer science tasks during informal learning environments. Results revealed students' self-efficacy scores on…

Popa, Ana-Maria – Journal of Educational Sciences, 2020
A qualitative and comparative analysis is performed regarding the possible consequences of the introduction in the school curriculum of 10-12 year old children, of Robotics and Applied Mathematics in Movement Transmission (AMMT) courses, respectively. The research has been done at the Gymnazial School Number 195, from Bucharest, during two scholar…

Mativo, John – Educational Media and Technology Yearbook, 2021
Robots and robot technology have been used widely across disciplines at the postsecondary level, but have not gained traction at the secondary (K-12) level. In higher education, for example, mechanical engineers design the kinematics of a robot, the electrical engineers determine electrical needs, and the industrial and systems engineers determine…

Fisher, Karin M.; Gallegos, Benjamin; Bousfield, Taylor – Proceedings of the Interdisciplinary STEM Teaching and Learning Conference, 2019
One of the challenges of educating adolescents with autism spectrum disorders is to find activities that are interesting and engaging. Researchers have shown that adolescents with autism often are attracted to technology. Using an exploratory research method, the experiences of three students with autism who participated in after school robotics…
