Abstract

From smart phones to smart homes, we are living in a highly technological world. The pace of technological advancements is only growing, and we see technology around us. From instructing Alexa to play a song to using robot vacuum to clean our houses, we are surrounded by robots to make our lives easier. Children growing up in this era of technological disruption need to develop the capability to deal with changes, especially from the career perspective.

Robotics education is an evolving topic. There are not many research or papers written in the topic. This research provides a step forward to it. While exploring the available resources in the area, the study summarizes the important aspects that must be taken care to have the maximum impact on students learning robotics and get the maximum output out of it.

The study revealed that the conversation is mostly centered around robotic tools because that’s a straightforward way to implement robotics education. But there are more important aspects that needs to be accompanied along to make the learning successful. As the innovation is happening is fast paced, there is a need for preparing the young ones in the best possible way. This paper provides the ways to surround kids with creative activities at home, at schools and outside as well.

The study discusses major aspects that teaching robotics education has and those should be implemented to get the best results. As the motive of this research is to provide the robotics educators with the best resources available as of now and help them keep updated with the new ones. The paper provides a step forward in the society of robotics education.
