“…In classical conditioning, for instance, a response to a stimulus is reinforced when it is followed by a positive reward effect. In this sense, major efforts should be put in endowing robots with user-friendly interfaces and interaction modalities (Camargo et al, 2021 ). On top of that, we observed few studies that considered user acceptance.…”

Within the field of robots in medical education, most of the work done during the last years has focused on surgeon training in robotic surgery, practicing surgery procedures through simulators. Apart from surgical education, robots have also been widely employed in assistive and rehabilitation procedures, where education has traditionally focused in the patient. Therefore, there has been extensive review bibliography in the field of medical robotics focused on surgical and rehabilitation and assistive robots, but there is a lack of survey papers that explore the potential of robotics in the education of healthcare students and professionals beyond their training in the use of the robotic system. The scope of the current review are works in which robots are used as didactic tools for the education of professionals in health sciences, investigating the enablers and barriers that affect the use of robots as learning facilitators. Systematic literature searches were conducted in WOS and Scopus, yielding a total of 3812 candidate papers. After removing duplicates, inclusion criteria were defined and applied, resulting in 171 papers. An in-depth quality assessment was then performed leading to 26 papers for qualitative synthesis. Results show that robots in health sciences education are still developed with a roboticist mindset, without clearly incorporating aspects of the teaching/learning process. However, they have proven potential to be used in health sciences as they allow to parameterize procedures, autonomously guide learners to achieve greater engagement, or enable collective learning including patients and instructors "in the loop". Although there exist documented added-value benefits, further research and efforts needs to be done to foster the inclusion of robots as didactic tools in the curricula of health sciences professionals. On the one hand, by analyzing how robotic technology should be developed to become more flexible and usable to support both teaching and learning processes in health sciences education, as final users are not necessarily well-versed in how to use it. On the other, there continues to be a need to develop effective and standard robotic enhanced learning evaluation tools, as well good quality studies that describe effective evaluation of robotic enhanced education for professionals in health sciences. As happens with other technologies when applied to the health sciences field, studies often fail to provide sufficient detail to support transferability or direct future robotic health care education programs.

“…Besides, the common usage of ER and CT could improve students' motivation, as shown by (Díaz-Lauzurica & Moreno-Salinas, 2019), especially when connected to STEAM (Sciences, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Math) initiatives. Camargo et al (2021), Conde et al (2021) andFerrada-Ferrada et al (2020) present comprehensive literature reviews about fostering STEAM through various activities, including robotics.…”

The Development of Computational Thinking skills in elementary school students can be done through different activities, with or without the use of computers or technological devices. In this sense, the use of programmable robots brings many of the advantages of educational robotics for teaching fundamental aspects of Computing. This paper describes an educational intervention that evaluates the use of four educational robot models to improve Computational Thinking with primary school students in the Huancavelica region in Peru, South America. This Peruvian region is known for its low human development rates, where the population still faces some important barriers regarding access to education and technology. The study was conducted with 6 to 13 years-old children for four weeks. Computational Thinking was evaluated using computational concepts like sequences, cycles, events, parallelism, conditionals, operators, and data manipulation. The evaluation results showed that children preferred robots that have more interaction, connectivity, and programming features, and they could contribute significantly to the development of Computational Thinking skills.

“…Numerous studies utilize these three databases well in this study area. They are important to the research topic of this research study, and they allow for the use of both search strings and Boolean to enhance the search process's findings [30]. Table 1 shows that the words used for search are adoption, UTAUT, and farm, using different words in the "adoption model," farm, and technology.…”

Increased food production necessitates technological adoption. Model adoption is a term that refers to the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). The model development research seeks to identify critical variables influencing technology adoption. The development objective is to accelerate the adoption of innovative technology. A literature study is used to develop the UTAUT model and identifies significant factors. SALSA was utilized to conduct this literature review (Secondary Appraisal, Synthesis, and Analysis). The analytical technique employed is a meta-analysis, with the findings shown as a forest plot. Three hundred ten journals were collected for this study evaluation, with 11 selected for further examination. Currently, 13 models are being used in selected journals to modify the UTAUT model. Much of the research in Asia is conducted in research sites. In comparison to the modified UTAUT model, the UTAUT model has the most significant association with technology adoption (0.432). On the other hand, that model exhibits a high degree of heterogeneity (81.5%). Behavioral Intention (0.384) is a component of the UTAUT model, with considerable variability seen in the data (70.3%). Agriculture interventions must be directed at boosting the use of technology. A farmer may engage the services of a mediator following the UTAUT paradigm. Three critical factors to examine are Performance Expectancy, Social Influence, and Facilitating Condition Factors.
