Abstract
In recent decades, the use of robotic tools has expanded in various areas of work and daily life, therefore also in school at different levels, particularly at the initial level. Reviewing the use of robotics tools implies turning our gaze towards teachers. This chapter aims to understand the meaning of the use, along with the emotions and experiences by teachers, of the Blue-Bot Programmable Children's Robot, as a digital education tool at the initial level. To do this, it analyzes the particular case of kindergartens in Vicente Lopez, Buenos Aires, Argentina, based on a qualitative methodology, with the use of ethnography and Expressive Creative Encounters device (ECE). This allows understanding of the elements that operate in the robot's experience, on the one hand, tied to local contexts and, on the other, to the robot device between the analog and the virtual which combines fear, uncertainty, and anxiety.
