Abstract

Educative Robotics (ER) enhances the quality science learning in a playful way and so improves student interest on technology, creative activities and interdisciplinary abilities in problem solving. ER has become a reality in different schools around the world at different education levels. This process, which started with the research development within universities, has made it possible for schools of all educational levels to use robotic to diversifying the process of knowledge construction. In Brazil, through the means of programs of introduction to information and communication technologies, ER has gradually been introduced in both private and public schools. This paper discusses the process of using robotic in elementary school (first nine years of education) in public institutions in which students and teachers have learned how to use the technology and how to integrate it in the school curriculum.
