The integration of robotics into education has become a pivotal advancement in enhancing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) learning. This study investigates the potential impact of robotics on educational outcomes by conducting a 10-week intervention involving 60 students, divided into control and experimental groups. The control group followed traditional teaching methods, while the experimental group engaged in hands-on robotics-based learning. Through a combination of assessments and statistical analysis using Student’s t-test, the study reveals significant improvements in learning outcomes, student engagement, and perceived satisfaction in the robotics group. Robotics fosters deeper understanding of complex STEM concepts, promotes critical thinking, problem-solving, and teamwork, and enhances student motivation. The findings support the incorporation of robotics into STEM education as a transformative tool for active learning and skill development. Despite the challenges of implementation, robotics offers a promising approach to preparing students for future technological challenges, with implications for reshaping STEM curricula and pedagogical practices.
