“…According to Eguchi (2012), educational robotics is a unique learning tool that attracts and motivates students by creating a hands-on and at the same time fun learning environment. Stergiopoulou et al (2016) defined educational robotics as a process in which students assemble and program their robotic systems to perform certain behaviors for educational purposes. Also, according to Angel-Fernandez and Vincze (2018), educational robotics is a field of study that aims to improve people's learning experience through the development and implementation of activities, technologies, and artifacts in which robots play an active role.…”

The study explored the effects of robotic-assisted applications on the variables of academic achievement and problem-solving skills in the “Propagation of Light” unit of the 5th grade science course. The study employed the pretest-posttest control group design, one of the quasi-experimental methods. The study sample consist of 36 5th grade students attending a public school in Turkey located in a district center in the Western Black Sea region. The study was carried out in a six-week period in the 2019-2020 academic year, and 19 of the students were selected as the control and 16 as the experimental group. Robotic supported activities were applied to the students in the experimental group, and the activities prescribed by the Science Curriculum were applied to the students in the control group. Open-ended and closed-ended “Academic Achievement Test” and “Problem-Solving Skills Test” were used as pretest and posttest in both groups. The data were analyzed using the independent samples t-test. The study results revealed that the academic achievement and problem-solving skills of the students in the experimental group, in which robotic-assisted activities were used, were significantly higher in both tests compared to the students in the control group.

“…To help students familiar with the basic principles in Programming, educational robotics have played an important role (Stergiopoulou, Karatrantou and Panagiotakopoulos, 2017). Programming robotic constructions creates a completely new learning environment which is highly motivating.…”

“…In the literature, there are sample studies that provide the integration of new technologies regarding STEAM education, where STEM and art dimension are added. In these studies, in the technology dimension of STEM or STEAM education, virtual reality technologies (Keefe & Laidlaw, 2013), educational robotics and coding (Eguchi & Uribe, 2017;Mataric, Koenig & Feil-Seifer, 2007;Stergiopoulou, Karatrantou & Panagiotakopoulos, 2016) and educational software is included. No activity related to the integration of museums into STEM or STEAM education could be found.…”

This study aims to reveal the effect of examining photos/documents in museums with traditional and STEM approach on students' success in history lesson, interest, attitude, national value and historical awareness. A control group pretest-posttest trial model, which is one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the research. The study group of the research is 2nd year secondary school students. The study was carried out with a total of 60 students, 30 students in the experimental group and 30 students in the control group. The application of the study was carried out in a secondary school and museums in Almaty (Kazakhstan). In the research, four different measurement tools were applied to determine the effect of museum visit and STEM approach, which are independent variables, on students' success in history lesson, attitude, interest and national value and consciousness level. Whether there is a difference between the achievement, attitude, interest, national values and consciousness levels of the experimental and control groups was analyzed with the "Independent t test". According to the findings obtained from the research, it was determined that the museum tour and STEM application studies were more effective in increasing the success, attitudes and interests of the students in the history lesson than the classical narrative-based tour in the museum with the control group. It was observed that both methods were effective in students' national values and historical awareness.
