Eleni Mangina; Georgia Psyrra; Laura Screpanti; David Scaradozzi – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
This article presents an overview of educational robotics (ER) in primary and preschool education. As ER seems to be gaining popularity for its effectiveness as a learning tool, more research needs to be done in this area. Recent results from ER pilot projects advocate for the integration of ER in K-12 education curricula. On the other hand,…

Mastering the visually complex characters of the Chinese language poses significant challenges for students. The situation is even worse in Hong Kong, where students with different backgrounds, including students with/without dyslexia and non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students, are placed in the same class. Interactive design has been proven…

Vando Gusti Al Hakim; Su-Hang Yang; Jen-Hang Wang; Hung-Hsuan Lin; Gwo-Dong Chen – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
The use of robots in education has the potential to engage students in learning activities and aims to form lasting relationships with them. To encourage sustainable, long-term human-robot interactions, a promising approach is to cultivate a pet-like, interdependent relationship. However, the potential of such relationships in education remains…

Teaching robotics with the robot operating system (ROS) is valuable for instating good programming practices but requires significant setup steps from the learner. Providing a ready-made ROS learning environment over the web can make robotics more accessible; however, most of the previous remote labs have abstracted the authentic ROS developer…

Israel Ulises Cayetano-Jimenez; Erick Axel Martinez-Rios; Rogelio Bustamante-Bello; Ricardo A. Ramirez-Mendoza; Maria Soledad Ramirez-Montoya – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Educational robotics (ER) is a discipline of applied robotics focused on teaching robot design, analysis, application, and operation. Traditionally, ER has favored rigid robots, overlooking the potential of soft robots (SRs). While rigid robots offer insights into dynamics, kinematics, and control, they have limitations in exploring the depths of…

Ting-Chia Hsu; Ching Chang; Yi-Sian Liang – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
The study explored the effects of an interdisciplinary learning approach on developing students' English learning (EL) and computational thinking (CT) through two different game-based learning approaches. A quasi-experiment was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of this approach in terms of enhancing students' CT knowledge and their EL…
