Various educational robotics (ER) initiatives have been carried out
worldwide to motivate learners at different levels to learn by working
with robotics equipment. A data extraction form was used in this study
to review ten ER projects and initiatives, published between 2018 and
2020. A survey was also carried out to gather data regarding electronics
and programming in primary schools’ curriculum in Namibia. The articles
describing the projects were reviewed based on selected criteria. The
aim of this study was to do a systematic review on different ER
initiatives and see how the approaches used could be employed to the
Namibian context. This review indicated positive results on ER
initiatives carried out worldwide.
