Samenvatting

Robots have been found to be effective tools for programming instruction, although it is not yet clear why students learn more using robots as compared to receiving ‘traditional’ programming instruction. In this study, 121 nine- to twelveyear-old children received a
programming training in pairs, in one of two conditions: using either a robot or a virtual avatar. The training was videotaped to study differences in children’s cooperation.
Furthermore, children’s learning outcomes and motivation were assessed through questionnaires. Children were found to learn more from programming the robot than the
avatar, although no differences in their cooperation during the training or self- reported motivation were found between the two conditions. Thus, future research is required to
further understand how exactly robots lead to higher learning outcomes than ‘traditional’ tools.
