- Abstract
- This study examined the effects of a robotics curriculum based on “Bee-bot” on the scientific problem-solving ability on 5-year-old children. A robotics curriculum was also designed to enhance their scientific problem-solving ability. This study examined a 4-week robotics curriculum was conducted 12 times for 4 weeks. For this study, 14 children in kindergarten A in Korea were set up as a treatment group and 18 children in kindergarten B in Korea as a control group. It was found that children in the treatment group who engaged in the robotics curriculum using “Bee-bot” performed better on scientific problem-solving tests. This finding indicates that an enhanced planning experience using “Bee-bot” was beneficial for improving young children’s scientific problem-solving ability. The implications for designing appropriate curricula using “Bee-bot” robots for kindergarteners are addressed.
