Educational robotics - or pedagogical robotics - is a discipline designed to introduce students to Robotics and Programming interactively from a very early age. In the case of infant and primary education, educational robotics provides students with everything they need to easily build and program a robot capable of performing various tasks. There are also more advanced — and more expensive — robots for secondary and higher education. In any case, the complexity of the discipline is always adapted to the students' age. Educational robotics is included within the so-called STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education, a teaching model designed to teach science, mathematics and technology together and one in which practice takes precedence over theory.

A field of study that aims to improve learning experience of people through the creation and implementation of activities, technologies and artifacts, where robots play an active role.
