A Systematic Review of Robotics’ Transformative Role in Education

This systematic review investigates educational robotics’ impact on enhancing learning experiences. It focuses on student engagement, motivation, and learning outcomes across various educational levels. Through the analysis of studies from elementary to university-level courses, a significant positive impact of robotics on learning performance and the development of 21st-century skills, such as computational thinking and problem-solving, is identified. Robotics is highlighted as a powerful tool for creating interactive and immersive learning environments. These environments support academic achievement, critical thinking, and collaboration. However, challenges like accessibility, teacher training, and curriculum integration are also discussed. The review suggests that educational robotics has transformative potential for pedagogical practices, deserving further exploration and integration into educational curricula.
