Technology and Gestaltism: A Robotic-Based Learning Aid Tool

A Robotic-Based Learning Aid Tool

Abstract

This paper presents the design of a robotic teaching tool that was conceived from the use of techniques of Gestalt Therapy, so as to be a playful instrument of verification of learning. The relevance of the study is due to the fact of the conception of this tool from the extraclass view of a group of students who contributed to the development and had robotics as a form of entertainment belonging to its universe outside the classroom. Three sessions were carried out on the use of the tool in the students' class in order to test their playful characteristics and to ascertain the ability to fix learning of non-technical subjects of the students who were involved in the development of the same.
