Abstract

The chapter summarizes the experience acquired during the implementation of a course, focused on the preparation of future teachers of ICT - the experience that may be exploited in teaching robotics and theory of constructivism. The chapter also describes other activities undertaken in connection with the course, e.g. actions designed to promote the concept of using educational robotics in schools and among public, or a process of a controlling practical education in elementary schools, organized in the context of a model curriculum project TERECoP.

The realized activities are assessed; then, on the basis of the gained knowledge and experience, proposals for some additional actions are put forward. Such actions could be executed in the preparation of teachers, who are interested in using constructivist educational robotics (e.g. use of media, creating digital learning materials, teaching practice, etc.).
