Abstract

This study aimed to investigate how elementary school students used Arduino-based educational robotics to support their electrical engineering learning. A maker education program (Robot MakerSpace) as one of afterschool clubs was created in a public elementary school. 15 students voluntarily participated in the program. A qualitative case study approach was used to collect required data. A preliminary analytical results indicated that the educational robotics were effective instructional tools to teach varied types of engineering concepts. In addition, Students might increase their systematic thinking, problem solving, and logical thinking skills during robotics programming.
