The presented Pilot is based on a Challenge based Learning Approach, being an activity of the RoboSTEAM - Integrating STEAM and Computational Thinking development by using robotics and physical devices - ERASMUS+ Project. In the presented educational experiment it were used physical devices, being chosen the mBot robot, programmed using Scratch. The presented challenges had as research question a global problem that was Wildfires. Student had to propose and to develop solutions based on the use of robots to prevent and fight wildfires. The students that participated in the experiment were secondary school students, from Spain and Portugal, with their background in technology and arts respectively. Previously to the experiment the involved students filled a STEM semantic Survey and during the experiments their performance was evaluated.
- Exchanging challenge based learning experiences in the context of RoboSTEAM Erasmus+ ProjectPublication . Conde, Miguel Ángel; Rodríguez-Sedano, Francisco Jesús; Fernández-Llamas, Camino; Jesus, Manuel; Ramos, Maria João; Celis-Tena, Susana; Gonçalves, José; Jormanainen, Ilkka; García-Peñalvo, Francisco JoséIn the context of the digital society, educational systems should prepare the students to succeed in a really volatile environment. In order to do so they require to acquire some specific competences that use to be related to STEAM Education. However, integrating STEAM is hard and requires of new methodologies and tools. RoboSTEAM is an Erasmus+ project that aims to facilitate this by using Challenge Based Learning and applying Physical Devices and Robotics. In order to know if what RoboSTEAM proposes work properly it must be tested in different contexts with different educational systems. The results of these tests should be compared, which requires of a common knowledge background. In order to achieve it RoboSTEAM proposes students and teachers exchanges between similar and different sociocultural environments, so they can learn how other people work in the project challenges and if what they do can be addressed by them in a similar way. The present work describes these exchanges, how they were planned and carried out and the main results obtained. From the exchanges carried out until now it is possible to say that they facilitate sharing knowledge that later can lead to better results in the project challenges and that they are enriching experiences both for students and for teachers.
- Fostering STEAM through challenge‐based learning, robotics, and physical devices: a systematic mapping literature reviewPublication . Conde, Miguel Ángel; Rodríguez-Sedano, Francisco Jesús; Fernández‐Llamas, Camino; Gonçalves, José; Lima, José; García-Peñalvo, Francisco JoséNowadays, companies are demanding better-prepared professionals to succeed in a digital society, and the acquisition of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM)-related competencies is a key issue. One of the main problems in this sense is how to integrate STEAM into the current educational curricula. This is not something related to a subject or educational trend but rather to new methodological approaches that can engage students. In this sense, such active methodologies that apply mechatronics and robotics could be an interesting path to pursue. Given this context, the first necessary task in evaluating the potential of this approach is to understand the landscape of the application of robotics and mechatronics in STEAM Education and how active methodologies are applied in this sense. To carry out this analysis in a systematic and replicable manner, it is necessary to follow a methodology. In this case, the researchers employ a systematic mapping review. This paper presents this process and its main findings. Fifty-four studies have been selected out of 242 total studies analyzed. From these, beyond obtaining a clear vision of the STEAM landscape regarding project topics, we can also conclude that robotics and physical devices have been applied successfully with collaborative methodologies in STEAM Education. Regarding conclusions, this paper shows that robotics and mechatronics applied with active methodologies is to be a good means to engage students in STEAM disciplines and thus aid the acquisition of what is commonly known as “21st-century skills.
- Programming Mobile Robots in an Educational Context: a Hardware-in-the-loop ApproachPublication . Brancalião, Laiany Suganuma; Alvarez, Mariano José; Coelho, João Paulo; Conde, Miguel Ángel; Costa, Paulo Gomes da; Gonçalves, JoséIn this paper it is presented a Hardware-in-theloop (HIL) mobile robot programming approach, to be applied in a robotics educational context. The motivation to apply this approach is the fact that students can program the robots without access to the robot hardware, but still maintain some important closed loop control critical features, such as a realistic lag time and the possibility for a larger number of students to program at the same time. Therefore, the developed software is applied to the real hardware without any change. The HIL approach was applied to provide a simulation close to reality, once the processing occurs in the real robot processor and the actuation and sensorization inside the simulation, adding to the advantage to test the firmware avoiding damage in the physical robot.

Integrating STEAM and developing competences such as Computational Thinking is highly demanded by the industry and higher education institutions. In order to do so new methodological approaches are required. RoboSTEAM project is an Erasmus+ project defined to address these topics by using of physical devices and robotics employing Challenge Based Learning methodology. One of the first steps in the project development is the definition of current landscape in the research field. Which means to carry out a literature mapping that considers previous applications of Challenge Based Learning in STEAM education and use of robots and physical devices to do so. This paper shows the mapping review process and the main results obtained. The mapping analyze 242 candidate works from the most relevant bibliographic sources and selected 54. Form them it was possible to see that there are not many initiatives on STEM Education related to Challenge base learning and the most of them are specially focused on the application of specific tools and in the development of concrete competences.
