Govind, Madhu – ProQuest LLC, 2022
In recent years there has been an increased push for K-12 computer science education. A major reason for this push is the growing evidence that introducing young children to coding can enhance their interest and promote their learning of foundational skills needed to thrive in today's technologically rich world. However, little research has…

Sara Willner-Giwerc; Chris Rogers; Kristen Wendell – International Journal of Designs for Learning, 2020
We describe a LEGO-compatible Internet of Things Technology (IoT) designed to enable elementary school students to learn about IoT by building their own smart, connected products. The Internet of Things is any network of physical devices that can share information over the internet. Using small, Wi-Fi enabled microprocessors, Grove sensors,…

Papadakis, Stamatios; Vaiopoulou, Julie; Sifaki, Eirini; Stamovlasis, Dimitrios; Kalogiannakis, Michail – Education Sciences, 2021
The introduction of STEM education, and specifically the implementation of educational robotics (ER), has drawn researchers' attention and has shown that teachers play a crucial role in leading this innovation. The present study concerns in-service and pre-service early childhood teachers, focusing on their perceptions and attitudes about ER use…

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…

Loukomies, Anni; Juuti, Kalle; Lavonen, Jari; Salmela-Aro, Katariina – Contributions from Science Education Research, 2019
The aim of this research was to examine if a set of three science and technology workshops would promote first-grade pupils' science-related competence beliefs. The first workshop dealt with electric circuits and related handicraft tasks. The second workshop involved programming with Lego Mindstorms robots. The third workshop was related to…

Cervera, Núria; Diago, Pascual D.; Orcos, Lara; Yáñez, Dionisio F. – Education Sciences, 2020
Educational robotics are commonly present in kindergarten and primary school classrooms, particularly Bee-bot. Its ease of use allows the introduction of computer programming to young children in educational contexts from a science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics (STEAM) perspective. Despite this rise, there are still few…

Huang, Rongjin; Kimmins, Dovie; Winters, Jeremy; Rushton, Gregory – Contemporary Issues in Technology and Teacher Education (CITE Journal), 2020
To address obstacles of adopting lesson study at scale, this study investigated how a technology-assisted lesson study (TALS) approach could remove the obstacle of scheduling while retaining positive effects of traditional lesson study (LS). The TALS approach involves embedding lesson study within teachers' normal schedules, videotaping the…

Attard, Catherine – Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, 2012
In this article, the author explores the value of using simple robotics such as BeeBots and ProBots to enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics in the primary classroom. Before making the decision to use such technologies, it is important that they be evaluated in terms of their affordances and constraints. In other words, teachers need to…

Kuperman, Asi; Mioduser, David – Interdisciplinary Journal of E-Learning and Learning Objects, 2012
In recent years, children from a kindergarten in central Israel have been exposed to learning experiences in technology as part of the implementation of a curriculum based on technological thinking, including topics related to behaving-adaptive-artifacts (e.g., robots). This study aims to unveil children's stance towards behaving artifacts:…
