ROBOTICS AND THE CONSTRUCTIVISM APPROACH AS A MEANS OF INCREASING SELF EFFICACY

Muhammad Hassan Massaty, Cucuk Wawan Budiyanto

Abstract

Students who get hands-on experience have more confidence than students who only use simulations. Hands-on learning is an implementation of the constructivism approach in learning. The constructivism approach positions knowledge as a person's cognitive construction of objects or experiences, not just memorization. One of the learning media that supports the constructivism approach is to use robotics because the use of robotics gives students the experience of constructing knowledge through direct (hands-on) experience. Because of this, the use of robotics indirectly affects students' self-confidence in a more positive direction. With increasing student self-confidence, student self-efficacy also increases. This article aims to identify the use of robotics that uses a constructivist approach, self-efficacy on the use of robotics, and the relationship between constructivism approaches that use robotics and self-efficacy. The method used is a systematic literature review. The main findings show that the use of robotics using a constructivist approach has a positive impact on students' self-efficacy. This article provides scientific support that the use of robotics has a positive impact on learning.
