Dados Estatísticos de Avaliação Experimental do Robomind no Ensino de Programação com Estudantes do Curso Técnico em Informática Integrado ao Ensino Médio

To minimize difficulties in programming learning, new pedagogical strategies were proposed. Robomind is an example, this educational software promotes learning through play. This study aims to provide statistical evidence about the pedagogical effectivity of this tool, through an experiment with 65 students from technical high school. Statistical test did not found significant result (p-value \textless 0.05) in the learning outcomes among the group of students exposed to the intervention with Robomind and the non-intervention group. Effect size calculation resulted in r = 0.08. On the other hand, the tool proved to be adequate to avoid student evasion.
