Abstract
This research paper presents a research study exploring the impact of robotics programs on fostering creativity in primary school pupils. The study conducted over 4 months and employed a mixed methodology combining pre-post CAP testing, interviews, and observational analysis. The study sample comprised 60 female students, aged 10 to 12, from a middle socio-economic background. The participants were randomly divided into control and treatment groups. The students in the treatment group were introduced to an Arduino robotics program involving artificial intelligence, whereas the participants in the control group did not join such program. The findings from the pre-posttests demonstrated that the AI robotics program, significantly enhanced thinking skills of creativity including flexibility, fluency, elaboration, and originality. The paper offers insights for education policy makers and provides recommendations for future research in this field. The chapter recommends incorporating AI robotics in the curriculum while calling educational policy makers for proving training and research opportunities in this field.
