Wu, Sheng-Yi; Su, Yu-Sheng – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2021
Currently, many countries actively cultivate students to develop computational thinking ability. Many visual programming environments (VPEs) and physical robot courses have been integrated into computational thinking learning in the elementary education stage. This study explores the relationship between the programming learning environment…

Bustamante, David Guillermo; Perez, Ana Maria; Calderon-Cerquera, Kyangzi; Orozco-Donneys, Carolina; Orozco, Ana Maria; Giron-Sedas, Jaime Andres; Perea, Jose Dario – European Journal of STEM Education, 2021
We performed an innovative STEM outreach project. High school students from the Colombian robotics' designed a prototype of a Lunar Loo named Tech Lunar Toilet (TLT) that was part of the international HeroX-NASA Challenge. These experiences were possible thanks to a wonderful network of collaboration. As a result of this program, the students that…

Ladias, Anastasios; Mikropoulos, Aristotelis; Ladias, Demetrios; Bellou, Ioanna – Themes in eLearning, 2021
This paper reports on CodeOrama, a visualization tool that displays the entire source code in a two-dimensional representation created to support the representation of a complex code in block-based programming environments, like Scratch, by using a two-dimension table. CodeOrama can be used by the students for the development of their programs as…

van der Linde, Diane; Voogt, Joke; van Aar, Nicole – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2021
In this study we analysed what computational thinking skills pupils used when programming a small robot to solve a given problem, a simple programming task in which pupils had to select codes and put them in the correct place. Computational thinking is the process of (re)formulating a problem so that it becomes possible to use computer technology…

Andrew Patrick Cook – ProQuest LLC, 2021
As a tangible and motivating medium for students to engage in computational thinking, robotics has drawn interest from educators and researchers as K-12 schools continue to integrate STEM into curriculum. Through this mixed methods study, the researcher sought to explore the effects of robotics instructional methods (task-based and project-based)…

Sean McCafferty – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Army Futures Command (AFC) has the implicit mission of ensuring that the Army does not get locked into a technology that might be ineffective in a future of competition and conflict. In this dissertation I develop insights and tools that can help assess and inform AFC's efforts to understand and avoid undesirable technological lock-in. I started…

Yang, Qi-Fan; Lian, Li-Wen; Zhao, Jia-Hua – International Journal of Educational Technology in Higher Education, 2023
According to previous studies, traditional laboratory safety courses are delivered in a classroom setting where the instructor teaches and the students listen and read the course materials passively. The course content is also uninspiring and dull. Additionally, the teaching period is spread out, which adds to the instructor's workload. As a…

Tang, Anne L. L.; Tung, Vincent Wing Sun; Cheng, Tiffany O. – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
There is increasing interest in the potential use of educational robotics (ER) in higher education. Few studies have considered teachers' perceptions of using ER outside science and engineering. This qualitative research aims to investigate university teachers' perceived opportunities and challenges of using ER in management education from three…

Johannessen, Lars E. F.; Rasmussen, Erik Børve; Haldar, Marit – British Journal of Sociology of Education, 2023
This article contributes to the sociology of education and technology by providing a cultural analysis of scepticism towards new technologies in school, using reactions to the telepresence robot 'AV1' as its case. AV1 is designed to connect 'homebound' students with their 'school-based' teachers and classmates. Despite its idealistic purpose, the…

Dirsuweit, Teresa; Gouws, Patricia – Interchange: A Quarterly Review of Education, 2023
The lack of participation of girls in programming robotics is well documented in the international literature on the subject. The Inspired Towards Science, Engineering and Technology (I-SET) is a community engagement project that promotes science engagement in predominantly disadvantaged communities. In this paper, we present the findings of an…

Tengler, Karin; Kastner-Hauler, Oliver; Sabitzer, Barbara; Lavicza, Zsolt – Education Sciences, 2022
Robotics is needed as education keeps up with challenges students are facing in a technological environment. A long-term research project focuses on developing a feasible robotics-based learning environment that enables primary school teachers to introduce computer science education. This paper shows educational robotics combining storytelling to…

Sung, Woonhee; Ahn, Junghyun; Black, John B. – Journal of Research in Childhood Education, 2022
Using robotics and programming, this study investigated the effects of different levels of embodied instruction on the problem-solving, debugging, programming proficiency, self-determination, and self-efficacy of students in ethnically diverse elementary classrooms. The first small-scale, quasi-experimental study involved 37 second-graders, who…

Daher, Wajeeh – Computers in the Schools, 2022
The robotics context is suggested as a context that supports the learning of the sciences including mathematics. The present study investigates how the robotics context affects students' motivation for learning mathematics. Two groups of seventh-grade students participated in the present research: a robotics class (32 students) and a regular class…
