“…These findings build on previous studies investigating the efficacy of hands-on robotics in education [38] , [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] , [43] , [44] . Much of the prior literature in this space uses uncontrolled studies and focuses on K-12 or university-level robotics education.…”

“…Furthermore, many successful consumer robots such as LEGO Mindstorms [35] , Root [36] , and Hapkit [37] educate K-12 and college students in robotics and automation. Many studies have concluded that such products are effective at teaching young students the fundamentals of robotics [38] , [39] , [40] , [41] , [42] , [43] , [44] . Further work by Troussas et al [45] , [46] has leveraged the ability of hands-on, interactive learning to implement fuzzy logic-based, automated curriculum personalization, demonstrating that even simple individualization of the learning environment can positively impact learners.…”

The shortage of skilled workers who can use robots is a crucial issue hampering the growth of manufacturing industries. We present a new type of workforce training system, TeachBot, in which a robotic instructor delivers a series of interactive lectures using graphics and physical demonstration of its arm movements. Furthermore, the TeachBot allows learners to physically interact with the robot. This new human-computer interface, integrating oral and graphical instructions with motion demonstration and physical touch, enables to create engaging training materials. Effective learning takes place when the learner simultaneously interacts with an embodiment of new knowledge. We apply this “Learning by Touching” methodology to teach basic concepts, e.g. how a shaft encoder and feedback control work. In a pilot randomized control test with a small number of human subjects, we find suggestive evidence that Learning by Touching enhances learning effectiveness in this robotic context for adult learners. Students whose learning experience included touching the robot as opposed to watching it delivers the lessons showed gains in their ability to integrate knowledge about robotics. The “touching” group showed statistically significant gains in self-efficacy, which is an important antecedent to further learning and successful use of new technologies, as well as gains in knowledge about robotic concepts that trend toward significance.

“…A robótica é uma outra abordagem que tem sido adotada para trabalhar conceitos do PC (Otaran, Tokatli, & Patoglu, 2018), muitas vezes, englobando o pensamento algorítmico por meio do ensino de programação (Athanasiou, Topali, & Mikropoulos, 2017). A interação tátil com robôs, além de motivar os alunos, pode também estimular a criatividade e imaginação.…”

O Pensamento Computacional (PC) tem sido considerado como uma alternativa para o desenvolvimento de habilidades consideradas fundamentais para os profissionais do século XXI. No Brasil, a importância do PC pode ser observada pela sua inserção nas normas da Base Nacional Comum Curricular. Entre as abordagens que visam qualificar o processo de ensino e aprendizagem por meio do desenvolvimento de competências do PC, destaca-se a utilização de jogos educacionais. Em particular, uma metodologia para aplicação de uma atividade denominada Elementais RPG foi previamente proposta, com o objetivo de integrar o ensino de matemática com os seguintes conceitos e técnicas do PC: abstração de dados e processos, e reconhecimento de padrões/generalização. Um estudo de caso presencial foi desenvolvido e os resultados obtidos deram indícios de que a realização da atividade foi atrativa e eficaz para o aprendizado dos alunos. No entanto, devido à pandemia do COVID-19, surgiu também a necessidade de novas alternativas para trabalhar a atividade de forma remota. Assim, este trabalho complementa a atividade proposta com um tutorial remoto para professores e um jogo digital para alunos, ambos aplicados e avaliados com o objetivo de identificar a viabilidade e adequação das propostas para o público-alvo.
