Abstract :
APRoLeCSNe is a project that presents the approach of pedagogical robotics to support the learning methods for children with special learning needs (CSLN). Pedagogical Robotics focuses on inductive learning and guided discovery. It uses a combination of software tools and educational robotic equipment, allowing students to solve problems in a fun and at the same time generate some learning.
