Abstract:
This research investigates the impact of educational robotics activities on developing computational thinking and programming skills in preschool children aged 3 to 6. Driven by the increasing promotion of early programming education to foster active and creative technological engagement, the study measured computational thinking across three key dimensions: sequences, correspondence, and action/instruction and debugging. The intervention, centered on learning through educational robotics, yielded positive results, concluding that children participating in the robotics program achieved significant progress across all three measured dimensions of computational competence.
