robótica educativa para el desarrollo de la creatividad y el pensamiento computacional en los estudiantes de la unidad educativa “mario minuche”

Abstract

Educational robotics is a powerful resource for learning, engaging students with a passion for design, construction, and innovation in creating robotic prototypes for educational purposes. This approach not only enhances technical skills but also promotes critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity. By providing a practical and stimulating platform, educational robotics not only educates but also inspires students to explore, experiment, and discover new horizons in technology. Based on this premise, this study aims to determine how using educational robotics influences the development of creativity and computational thinking in students. This work focuses on implementing educational robotics as a strategy to foster creativity and computational thinking among high school computer science students. The proposed methodology encourages active and participatory learning, allowing students to apply theoretical concepts to hands-on projects. This approach not only improves the understanding of technological concepts but also drives the development of essential skills for the digital age, such as teamwork and independence. The study demonstrates that educational robotics can effectively transform traditional learning into a dynamic and enriching experience. The results show that this approach significantly contributes to the holistic development of students, preparing them to tackle technological challenges.
