During the winter semester of 2024, the Educational Robotics course at UniWA successfully disseminated the FERTILE methodology among master’s students. The students actively engaged with the FERTILE methodology principles, integrating Educational Robotics with Arts to enhance computational thinking skills. They co-designed artful ER projects using the FERTILE Community Platform, fostering and showcasing the effectiveness of the FERTILE methodology in bridging the gap between Educational Robotics and the Arts. Significantly, the educators leading the course were active FERTILE UniWA research team members, ensuring an in-depth learning experience for the students.
This effort not only enriched students’ pedagogical skills but also outlined the vast potential for broader implementation of the FERTILE methodology in various educational contexts, promising a bright future for this innovative approach
