Educational robotics in the learning of geometry instudents of theregular basic education

Abstract

The purpose of the research work was to use educational robotics as a tool for learning regular polygons in students of the 2nd grade of regular basic education. The project was organized in five modules oriented to the development of regular polygons, whose sessions were developed through investigative and application activities according to the module. As a tool, the LEGO MINDSTORMEV3robot was used, which allowed students to understand the concept of regular polygons; For this purpose, five groups were worked on, each with a robot, and each student also designed their own programming. The results of the use of educational robotics, as a tool for the construction of the concept of regular polygon, allowed to understand and conceptualize the concepts of regular polygons and by working as a team they developed communication, critical, creative skills and skills in the use of technologies.
