Home-made robotic education, a new way to explore

Abstract

Robotic Education is becoming very popular these days. Simple robots are being used within STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) Education as a powerful tool which eases the way to teach STEM knowledge. Additionally, Robotics also provide an attractive manner to transform boring concepts into an amusing learning process. Along this paper, a new way to use robotic is presented. Instead of using robots in classrooms or remote laboratories, the proposal is to use robots at home. Currently, there are some alternatives on order to introduce educational robots at home. Along this article, Crumble is presented as a tool which can be used with the aim of deploying STEM knowledges at home joining adults and children.
