Exploring Paths to Integrate Robotics in Science and Technology Education: from Teacher Training Courses to School Classes

Abstract

This paper presents a constructivist methodological approach for integrating robotics in science and technology teacher training curriculum. Two interventions are reported involving two distinct target groups: technology future teachers and experienced in-service physics teachers. They resulted in the development of robotics projects in school classes in corresponding disciplines. Finally, lessons learnt from these experiences are discussed.
