The paper proposes the results of a research conducted to verify the pedagogical potential of Coding and robotics in the learning processes of 4-year-old children, at cognitive and socio-relational level.
The research involved teachers and children from kindergartens, combining the media-educational and psychological approach, in order to understand the impact of unplugged and plugged Coding on individual and group interaction, spatial and movement skills, memorisation and decoding of progressively more complex instructions and on the development of problem solving skills, verifying the positive impact of storytelling, digital media and the educational robot Cubetto.
