Mari, Emilie; Millon Faure, Karine; Assude, Teresa – International Journal for Technology in Mathematics Education, 2022
In this article, we focus on how spatial knowledge can be articulated with the integration of programmable floor robots in the mathematics classroom. We describe the observation grid we conceived to take into account three distinct dimensions: spatial knowledge, robotics and computer programming. Then, we implement this tool to analyse mathematics…
