La Robótica Educativa: Potenciando el pensamiento matemático y habilidades sociales en el aprendizaje

In educational environments, trends are addressed that allow learning to be acquired in various ways, among these is educational robotics, which has become a versatile tool capable of enhancing student performance at various stages of their learning. The purpose of this document is to explore the aspects related to educational robotics that contribute to the development of social skills and mathematical thinking in students. To achieve this objective, an exhaustive search was carried out that includes articles and publications related to the topic, classification and documentary analysis. This research allowed us to identify the possible contributions of educational robotics to social skills and mathematical thinking, in addition to establishing that it is a growing trend in different educational and social areas. The analysis carried out highlights that educational robotics is an effective tool to promote mathematical thinking. The literature supports the idea that students involved in the manipulation and use of robots experience significant improvements in their understanding of mathematics. In addition, it has been observed that this practice also enhances socio-emotional skills, such as empathy, cooperation, communication and collaboration among students. The period for the documentary review was established between 2015 and 2023, consulting a total of 50 articles from the databases of Dialnet, Redalyc, SciELO, Latindex, Google Scholar and institutional repositories, 28 studies were related to this work
