Exploring How Primary Students Develop Computational Thinking Using Educational Robotics: A Mixed Methods Case Study
Direct linkDirect link
Slki Narae Lim – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Computational thinking (CT) is a critical problem-solving skill that can help students be successful in school and the 21st-century workplace (Wing, 2006). This project builds on past research showing that educational robotics can be a useful and cost-effective means to teach CT to primary school students. Past research has not yet resolved…

Active Learning Environments with Robotic Tangibles: Children's Physical and Virtual Spatial Programming Experiences
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Burleson, Winslow S.; Harlow, Danielle B.; Nilsen, Katherine J.; Perlin, Ken; Freed, Natalie; Jensen, Camilla Nørgaard; Lahey, Byron; Lu, Patrick; Muldner, Kasia – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2018
As computational thinking becomes increasingly important for children to learn, we must develop interfaces that leverage the ways that young children learn to provide opportunities for them to develop these skills. Active Learning Environments with Robotic Tangibles (ALERT) and Robopad, an analogous on-screen virtual spatial programming…

Experiential Learning of Robotics Fundamentals Based on a Case Study of Robot-Assisted Stereotactic Neurosurgery
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Faria, Carlos; Vale, Carolina; Machado, Toni; Erlhagen, Wolfram; Rito, Manuel; Monteiro, Sérgio; Bicho, Estela – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2016
Robotics has been playing an important role in modern surgery, especially in procedures that require extreme precision, such as neurosurgery. This paper addresses the challenge of teaching robotics to undergraduate engineering students, through an experiential learning project of robotics fundamentals based on a case study of robot-assisted…

The Malleability of Spatial Ability under Treatment of a FIRST LEGO League-Based Robotics Unit
Direct linkDirect link
Coxon, Steven Vincent – ProQuest LLC, 2012
Spatial ability is important to science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) success, but spatial talents are rarely developed in schools. Likewise, the gifted may become STEM innovators, but they are rarely provided with pedagogy appropriate to develop their abilities in schools. A stratified random sample of volunteer participants (n = 75)…

Approaching Complexity through Planful Play: Kindergarten Children's Strategies in Constructing an Autonomous Robot's Behavior
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Levy, S. T.; Mioduser, D. – International Journal of Computers for Mathematical Learning, 2010
This study investigates how young children master, construct and understand intelligent rule-based robot behaviors, focusing on their strategies in gradually meeting the tasks' complexity. The wider aim is to provide a comprehensive map of the kinds of transitions and learning that take place in constructing simple emergent behaviors, particularly…
