Abstract(s)

In school year 2018/2019, the subject curricular use of educational robotics was integrated into the master’s course of teacher training at the School of Higher Education of the Polytechnic Institute of Setúbal. The topic was presented, experimented and discussed in the classroom and the students had the opportunity to build some activities aiming for curricular integration of robots in their supervised internship contexts. As this is a new experience, we have considered has be very important to collect the students' written perceptions of the experience, which we analyze in this article. We believe that this experience, introducing the above-mentioned subject into the curriculum was successful and it should be continued in the coming years.
