The recent PISA test scores for OECD countries reveal a concerning trend: a noticeable decline in mathematics and science performance among students. These subjects are pillars of modern education, underpinning critical thinking and problem-solving skills necessary for the workforce of tomorrow. Reading, while seemingly stable, also requires renewed focus to ensure comprehensive literacy. In the wake of these findings, it’s imperative to find innovative approaches to re-engage students. Robotics education offers a multifaceted solution to this challenge, providing a dynamic learning experience that can reignite students’ passion and proficiency in these key areas.
