Objective

The objective of our project design a robot that can help primary school children with learning. We will focus specifically on children in the fourth and fifth grade of primary school, age six to eight, and teaching basic arithmetic such as multiplication.

We will do a literature study to specify an effective learning method for arithmetic, to identify what assistance teachers need, and how children are best stimulated.

In the scope of this course it will not be realistic to design a fully function prototype. Therefore, we will use an off-the-shelf robot that only need to be programmed to test our findings.

Use

User

Our robot is designed to target the needs of elementary school students who are working on multiplications. The robot would use some sort of interactive and engaging method, like a game or quiz, to empower the motivation of the students. The robot would be easy to navigate and user-friendly to make sure the children can use it with ease.

Society

The robot has the potential to make a positive impact on society by improving the academic outcomes of elementary school. This would be done by proving and interactive and engaging way to learn multiplications, the robot would help with motivation and confidence of the children. Which would lead to an improved learning curve. Additionally by using the robot, the teacher would have more time to focus on other tasks, as helping students who need extra help, or the greater part of the class and let the excelling students use it to keep it challenging and motivating for them.

Enterprise

Investing in these robots could be a smart decision for schools and educational institutions. As the robot helps by providing an innovative and effective tool for teaching, the robot can help both improve the quality of education and support the development of future generations. The robot's user-friendly design and advanced technology also make it an attractive and marketable product for businesses in the educational technology industry. As the use of technology in education continues to grow, our robot could represents a valuable opportunity for growth and expansion of this industry.


State-of-the-art

Figure 1, The Dash Robot

There are already some robot technologies that are used in the classroom in elementary schools. For example the Dash Robot [2] , that looks really appealing for children and they can engage with it. With the Dash Robot children get experiences with coding, for example by drag-and-dropping blocks. The Ozobot Evo is quite similar, it can also be used for block coding. And its sensors detect color codes and react to them. Another example of a robot that can be used to learn children code is the Finch 2.0 robot. All these robots are made to help children learn coding at elementary school. However, we are thinking of a robot that can help with tutoring different subjects and not only coding.

The Ozobot Evo

There are also done studies with robotic tutors, like MONICA (https://blog.frontiersin.org/2016/11/04/robotic-tutors-for-primary-school-children/). It was tested whether the robot could detect emotional states from children, and the children liked working with the robot, but it is not developed well enough yet that such a robot could replace the teacher.

The ROYBI robot is also a robot (https://roybirobot.com/) that can teach children languages and other languages. It can improve a child's learning from the age of 3 and onwards.

At this moment, there are not yet robots that completely take over the roles of teachers.

How do children learn multiplication sums?

https://wijzeroverdebasisschool.nl/uitleg/tafels-oefenen

kind leert groepjes te maken van voorwerpen en die bij elkaar optellen, eerst nog los alles tellen en daarna inzien dat het makkelijker kan, herhaald optellen omdat je groepjes hebt.

rechthoekmodel > plantjes in een rechthoekige bak, 3 rijen van 5 plantjes

groepjesmodel > maak groepjes van 5 en kijk hoeveel groepjes je hebt

lijnmodel > sprongen op een tijdlijn, zie je duidelijk het herhaald optellen

3 dozen met sinaasappels, alleen in de bovenste kun je tellen dat er 6 sinaasappels in zitten, dus je moet zelf bedenken 6 + 6 + 6

omkeerstrategie > (8x4 = 4x8)

verdubbelen (3 x 4 = 12 dus 6 x 4 = 24, het dubbele van 12)

halveren (10 x 4= 40, 5 x 4 = 20, de helft van 40)

1x meer of minder


eerst tafels 0 en 1, daarna 2 (alle even getallen, bv schoenparen tellen) en 10

daarna 5 (handen gebruiken met 5 vingers)

daarna 3 en 4

dan 6 tot 9, is voor veel leerlingen echt lastiger


handige spelletjes die al bestaan > addit rekenspel, formula, toverstapels

laat zien welke sommen ze wel allemaal al weten, dat is al best veel wss, dat motiveert om de paar lastige die over zijn ook te leren

meest efficiënt blijkt mondeling oefenen, dus rijtjes opzeggen

liedjes?

flitskaartjes met de robot?

soort bingo

domino

herhalen is keyyyy

met grote keersommen zoals 14x6, splitsen in 10x6 en 4x6
