Educational Robotics and Children’s Mathematics Learning

While educational robotics is more frequently utilized in teaching students about engineering principles. In this presentation, Ting Zhang, a 3rd year EDCP PhD student shared his robotics teaching experience in the field of mathematics. He introduced the LEGO WEDO kit to demonstrate how students as young as grade 2/3 use the kit to build different models that feature working motors and sensors and how the mathematical thinking is visible during the class.
