Abstract

In this paper, the authors developed robot models to attract high school students to familiarize themselves with STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math). The objectives of the study focus on two main directions: (1) Complete and improve the effectiveness of STEM education Robot for high school students, (2) proposing implementation plans in high schools. The authors propose designing, building hardware and software programs for models in the form of modules that learners can practice assembling themselves, and learners can program the basic features on their own by this model. After the completion of hardware equipment, the authors develop the implementation plan at some high schools in Ho Chi Minh City.
