Abstract:
This research explores the integration of robotics into K-12 education to enhance emotional and social learning (ESL). The theoretical framework draws from constructivism, social learning theory, experiential learning, socio-cultural theory, and emotional intelligence models. Implementation strategies include curriculum design, teacher training, student engagement, and ethical considerations. Challenges encompass ethical dilemmas, access disparities, and socio-cultural sensitivity. The future of robotics in education involves technological advances, global collaboration, and adaptive learning environments. The conclusion emphasizes the transformative potential of robotics in cultivating well-rounded individuals with technical proficiency and heightened socio-emotional skills. As the educational landscape evolves, the integration of robotics emerges as a dynamic force shaping a generation prepared for the complexities of the 21st century.
