Abstract

Educational robotics involve using robots as an educational tool to provide a long term, and progressive learning activity, to cater to different age group. The current concern is that, using robots in education should not be an instance of a one-off project for the sole purpose of participating in competitive event. Instead it should be a sustainable long term progression spanning the primary school to pre-university level. This paper presents a framework for robotics using a multiphase approach to enhance user learning in a competitive arena.
