Abstract

This study aimed to present best practices for robotics in early childhood education based on a case study. Positive Technological Development (PTD) framework was utilised as a theoretical framework suitable for robotics and children education studies. The developmentally appropriateness of the robotics resources for the children was also discovered to make recommendations for the educators. Since robotics in education is an emerging area, through evidence based findings, it is aimed to contribute to the effective use of robotics in education with presenting examples from the children's learning process with robotics.
