This study proposes a methodological approach that allows educational robotics to be used in order to develop collaboration skills in educational settings. Educational robotics is a promising educational tool that has the potential to become a platform for the development of a range of skills. However, there is a scarce amount of empirical case studies that present detailed information on the way it is implemented within formal primary school education. On the other hand, even though collaboration skills are considered vital for future school graduates, it is rarely discussed as the main focus of educational robotics. Most commonly collaboration or teamwork skills are viewed as a byproduct of the robotics activities. This work views collaboration skills as the main outcome. The methodological approach that this work proposes has been implemented during a period of three years in one pilot and two case studies. This research measures the reflection of the robotics tasks paired with the methodological approach to the development of collaboration skills. In order to measure the development of collaboration skills, the ATC21STM framework was used. The results showed activation of the indicators that comprise collaboration skills. Additionally, observations, which were gathered during unsupervised and unrelated to educational robotics, non-context-driven social interactions, showed improvements in students’ social behavior.

“…The idea used in the Scratch application is to convert the language of the code and syntax forms. The code is synthesized by dragging and stacking graphic tiles according to the instructions of Stoumpa et al (2022) into easy and attractive object forms to use for learning (Poobalan et al, 2019). Thus, scratch becomes a good alternative media to be used in an effective learning process.…”

Learning that is obtained quickly is always associated with technological developments. Scratch is a simple coding application that can be used in learning systems. This study aimed to analyze the validity of a Scratch-based E-Module learning media on the earth and the universe for grade 5 elementary schools, making the learning process more meaningful. This study used a research and development (RD) design with a quantitative descriptive approach where experts assessed the learning media that has been developed. The experts involved in this study were 9 people, including five lecturers and four certified teachers. Data were obtained using a validity test instrument to assess the E-module learning media that has been developed through meetings and explanations on how this learning media is operated, then, the experts filled the instrument out through the Google form prepared by researchers. Data were analyzed using SPPS version 23 and presented descriptively. The results show that the Scratch-Based E-Module has a validity value of 77% with very valid criteria. This demonstrates that the Scrach-Based E-Module is credible and useful for education, as stated by experts in the field. This Scratch-Based E-Module can therefore be implemented. Educators and scholars alike can benefit from this Scratch-Based E-Module.
