Comparative Study of the Impact of Robot-Human Integration in the Context of Learning Scenarios: Literature Review

The integration of robotics into educational settings has witnessed a significant surge in recent years, presenting a transformative shift in traditional learning paradigms. As technology continues to advance, robots are increasingly finding their place in classrooms and virtual learning environments, sparking a growing interest in understanding their impact in the learning process. This comparative study delves into the multifaceted aspects of the integration of robots and humans within the context of learning scenarios, by shedding light on the various effects on student engagement, learning outcomes, and the roles of educators. The aim of this paper is to review the literature of the integration of robotic agents in a learning context. To this end, the PRISMA method was used to exhaustively select a list of articles studying the subject. In the end, a total of 10 articles were retained using multiple selection criteria the PRISMA method, and an experiment was proposed to demonstrate the impact of a verbal interaction scenario between a NAO robot and a group of children.
