Past studies have shown that training coding skills through ER enhances first graders' executive functions (EFs). Little is known, however, about the effects of ER interventions, alone or combined with un-plugged activities, on preschoolers' CT and EF skills. In a cluster-randomized cont...

Furthermore, integrating CT activities, both unplugged and through educational robotics, significantly enhances cognitive abilities such as planning, response inhibition, and visuospatial skills in preschoolers [10]. CT activities also improve executive functions in young children, which are crucial for ...
This difficulty depends on the automatization of handwriting, which, in turn, unleashes the working memory, providing much space for higher-order skills [97]. As noted by [98], this working memory, known as a cognitive workbench, usually controls mental activities that allow us to write, read...
The authors of that study argue that although the activities with the programmable robot (i.e., Cubetto) were engaging and challenging for children, perspective taking proved complex for the preschoolers. Indeed, several facilitations were needed to support children in the task (e.g., giving ...
LEGO-type robots have been consistently employed in ER activities with the goal of developing social skills and social status in all studies conducted in various countries except for one in Portugal, where the Ozobots robot was utilized. Additionally, LEGO-type robots, accompanied by different softw...
surveys, ensuring its continuous improvement. These protocols are to be integrated into both the robotics courses and teacher-training initiatives. This study aims to contribute to the field by using a dynamic STEM-driven approach based on mobile robotics. It outlines a strategic vision for better-...
