Introducing educational robotics through a short lab in the training of future support teachers

This paper discusses the design and evaluation of an introductory laboratory in Educational Robotics during a specialization course in support teaching for special needs. The trainees were mostly in-service teachers. We provided various practical examples with different robotic platforms (essentially Mindstorms EV3 and Bee-bot) on the basis of the level. The evaluation was based on a questionnaire the trainees filled at the end of any session: the paper contains some summarizing results of the analysis of the questionnaires
