Educational strategy for the creation of the robotics club of the La Maná Higher Technological Institute

Abstract

The transformation of teaching and learning driven by technological advances and sociocultural changes highlights the need to integrate innovative methods in education, such as robotics. This study presents the creation of a robotics club at the Instituto Superior Tecnológico La Maná, focused on promoting STEM skills among students through the application of theoretical knowledge and the promotion of collaborative and interdisciplinary work. The implementation of the club is justified as an educational strategy to develop skills in problem solving, creativity and collaboration, preparing students for future challenges. Using a mixed research approach, which combines documentary analysis and field work (interviews, questionnaires and observations), this study evaluates the initial impact of the club on the development of students' technical and collaborative skills and their interest in science and technology. technology. The findings indicate a significant increase in interest in robotics and an improvement in collaborative competencies, underscoring the importance of such initiatives in contemporary technical and technological education. Seeking to establish the robotics club as a strategy to enrich STEM education, evaluating its impact on the development of technical and collaborative skills, increasing interest and motivation for science and technology, and its potential contribution to the educational community and local.
