Aplicação de Robótica na Educação de Forma Gradual para o Estímulo do Pensamento Computacional

Abstract

This paper describes a teaching method of programing logics through robotics. This paper also reports the experience of applying this approach in a small town's public school. The main goal of this approach is to encourage the Computational Thinking of the students. As differential, the approach takes into account the progression on the Technologies Lego Mindstorms and Arduino. The method also takes into account the use of fewer units of robotics kits. This was made in order to suit the reality of these schools.
