Abstract
Robotics technology can be implemented into the elementary school curriculum with the presence of extracurricular robotics or better as robotics only. Robotics in students is taught to assemble and program simple robots packaged in robotics learning media. Robotics activities basically use wheelled robots but have different functions. With the basic assumption of the robot, we can reduce the cost of procurement by making a robot with one wheel but with various functions. The wheeled robot is portable, so it is easy to disassemble. Robotics activities in generaly uses an Arduino controller with the C programming language. Elementary school students have difficulty understanding the language. Ardublock as one of the easy and open-source solutions. This research focused on the working system of a wheeled robot with various features (line tracer, transporter, and wall tracking) as well as the success in using ardublock logic as the programming language of the robot. The results test show that the ardublock program can be used to program the Arduino controller on the robot. The wheeled robot with the line follower feature recorded a travel time of 6.0 seconds on a 200cm trajectory. The wheeled robot with a transporter feature on a 200 cm trajectory takes an average of 8.9 seconds with the success of lifting objects 7 times out of 10 attempts.
Highlights
Robots are the result of today's technology
In robotics students are study to assemble and program simple robots packaged in robotics learning media
The purpose of the study robotics in primary school, there are three, namely: by motor providing basic skills to students of robotics from an early age; cognitively as the implementation of the Thematic and Science knowledge that has been obtained by students; affectively builds the spirit of teamwork in completing the manufacture of robots. elementary school students who follow extracurricular robotics comes from Grade 4, 5 and 6 with the aim that students already have the ability to program the robot logic
Summary
Robots are the result of today's technology. Robotics technology can be implemented into the elementary school curriculum with extracurricular robotics or better known as robotics. There are three objectives of robotics extracurricular in elementary school, namely: motorically to provide students with basic robotics skills from an early age; cognitively as the implementation of the Thematic and Science knowledge that has been obtained by students; affectively builds the spirit of teamwork in completing the manufacture of robots. Robotics extracurriculars often get information to take part in robotics competitions at the elementary school level. The competition purpose is to increase the experience and competitiveness of students in the field of robotics between elementary schools. The competition categories held in general are line tracer and transporter
