“…Several AR models are available; almost all use the spiral or circular process [21,22]. The most common AR model introduces a spiral of cycles where each research stage includes the following phases: (i) planning, (ii) action, (iii) observation, and (iv) reflecting/evaluation, leading into further cycles where these stages are repeated [23][24][25]. Based on the above AR model, this research adapts it to design and develop an educational robot that is conducted by the participants themselves (teachers and students) and other stakeholders in the same community (parents and researchers) through the following phases in a self-reflective spiral of cycles (Figure 1): Considering the above limitations of existing commercial educational robots and the needs of the educational community that emerged from the survey, the researchers in this article decided to design and build an educational robot based on the community's suggestions.…”

This research evaluates a novel, modular, open-source, and low-cost educational robotic platform in Educational Robotics and STEM Education. It is the sequel of an action research cycle on which the development of this robot is based. The impetus for the need to develop this came from the evaluation of qualitative and quantitative research data collected during an educational robotics event with significant participation of students in Athens, which showed an intense interest in students in participating in educational robotics activities, but—at the same time—recorded their low involvement due to the high cost of educational robots and robotic platforms. Based on the research’s findings, this robot was designed to suit the whole educational community; its specifications came from its members’ needs and the processing and analysis of qualitative and quantitative data. This paper presents an evaluation of the robot using the Technology Acceptance Model. The robot was exposed to 116 undergraduate students attending a pedagogical university department to evaluate its handling according to the model’s factors. Research results were promising and showed a high degree of acceptance of the robot by these students and future teachers, providing the impetus for further research.

“…The most common one was introduced by Lewin, is a selfreflective spiral of cycles (Fig. 2), where one stage of the research includes phases of (i) planning, (ii) action, (iii) observation and (iv) evaluation or reflection which then lead into further cycles where the stages are repeated [83], [92], [93]. In the same spirit Greeff ,Coetzee & Ortrun Zuber-Skerritt [94], [95] suggest the following five steps (Fig.…”

The aim of this paper is double: (a) to record the latest theoretical considerations (literature review) in the field of STEM (acronym of Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), Educational Robotics and the Educational Robotic Platforms used in their implementation, and (b) to validate the argumentation on the potential contribution of an Action Research implementation on STEM education with the ultimate goal of designing and developing an "open philosophy", low-cost, hardware and software educational platform for the implementation of STEM and Educational Robotics.

O Telessaúde/ES, com o auxílio de Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC), promove a ampliação da Educação Permanente à Saúde (EPS) aos profissionais atuantes nas equipes de Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) do estado do Espírito Santo. O presente estudo objetivou apresentar uma proposta de um ambiente virtual em Odontologia, no âmbito do Telessaúde/ES, proporcionando um espaço exclusivo de compartilhamento de informações às Equipes de Saúde Bucal (ESB). Trata-se de uma pesquisa-ação, método adequado para propor soluções para a melhoria do acesso e utilização das ferramentas do Telessaúde/ES pelas ESB mediante às necessidades identificadas. Em 2017, o Telessaúde Bucal iniciou suas atividades no Telessaúde/ES, disponibilizando os serviços de webpalestras, teleconsultorias assíncronas e síncronas e materiais oficiais da área, ofertados na última sexta-feira de cada mês. O ambiente virtual de Telessaúde Bucal apresentado estará incluso no espaço de “Programas Especiais”, permitindo o acesso a qualquer serviço. O Telessaúde Bucal é um serviço que poderá promover conhecimento e troca de experiências para a efetivação da EPS, estimulando maior participação dos profissionais da Odontologia.
