Representative examples of implementing educational robotics in school based on the constructivist appr oach

Educational Robotics (ER) is a powerful technology which combines both constructing and programming a robot model. As such it can address teaching objectives from a wide range of discipline s from computer science and technology to design, mathematics and science education. Additionally ER has strong experimental characteristics which can effec tively support innovative constructivist approaches to teaching and learning. In this paper we focus on the design of robotics enhanced activities emphasizing the main constructivist principles adopted. Secondly we illustrate these as pects through some representative examples.
