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…

Park, Jungho – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2015
Much research has been conducted in educational robotics, a new instructional technology, for K-12 education. However, there are arguments on the effect of robotics and limited empirical evidence to investigate the impact of robotics in science learning. Also most robotics studies were carried in an informal educational setting. This study…

Sun, Yulong; Chang, Chun-Hao; Chiang, Feng-Kuang – Educational Technology & Society, 2022
Previous studies on the topic of "Problem solving" indicate it's one of the skills of students in the 21st century that educational robots can effectively support. Additionally, there are gender differences in the problem-solving process. Understanding the problem-solving process and using knowledge to solve problems is key to improving…

Murray, Jenny; Bartelmay, Kathy – Science and Children, 2005
Can second-grade students construct an understanding of sophisticated science processes and explore physics concepts while creating their own inventions? Yes! Students accomplished this and much more through a month-long project in which they used Legos and Robolab, the Lego computer programing software, to create their own inventions. One…

Rinehart, Ronald W.; Olsen, Benjamin D.; Freese, Lisa; Kuhn, Mason – Science and Children, 2021
Space exploration is intrinsically interesting to young learners. Children gaze at the stars and marvel at what it might be like to live "out there!" With the July 2020 launch of the Mars 2020 Perseverance Rover mission, and its landing in 2021, there is no better time to capitalize on engineering and science in the news. This mission is…

Hurdle, Zach; Stanford, Angela; Nix, Katy; Perry, Nick – Science and Children, 2021
In an ever-increasing technological society, teachers have now, more than ever, a vast offering of educational technologies made available for classroom use. However, the time necessary for vetting and developing rigorous lessons with the usage of such technologies can be overwhelming for a classroom teacher. Still, teachers need the opportunity…

Voyles, Martha M.; Fossum, Tim; Haller, Susan – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2008
This study examines teacher-student interactions and selected student gender differences with volunteer boys and recruited girls in a technology class. The participants were teachers and triads of girls and boys in single-gender sections of a technology course where the students built, designed features for, and programmed Lego robots. We analyzed…
