Формиране на нагледно-действено мислене и технологични компетентности чрез роботика — модел на педагогически експеримент
Developing Hands-on Thinking and Technological Competencies through Robotics — a Model of a Pedagogical Experiment

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents a theoretically grounded and practically developed model of a pedagogical experiment aimed at examining the impact of robotics and artificial intelligence education on the development of hands-on thinking and technological competencies in primary school students. The theoretical framework is based on the constructivist approach, theories of cognitive development in childhood, and contemporary concepts of technological literacy in early education. The proposed model integrates experimental activities with real physical objects, programmable platforms, and digital educational tools within structured learning situations adapted to students’ age-specific characteristics. The main stages of the experiment, diagnostic instruments, and evaluation criteria are outlined. The model provides a reproducible and scientifically grounded framework for empirical research applicable across diverse educational contexts
