Abstract(s)
t Nowadays, students learn from the world through
a variety of physical and virtual spaces. As one of the priorities
of the 21st century is to develop capacities associated with
computational thinking and digital literacy, the use of robots
in the teaching of programming is becoming more and more
usual, since it promotes the development of problem solving,
communication and teamwork skills. The purpose of this
paper is to analyse and discuss the concept of participation in
a virtual community created for the learning of programming
with robots. Based on the situated learning theory and the
underlying concepts of communities of practice, as well as the
effects of technology thereon, we seek a better understanding
of learning in these virtual spaces.
