Abstract

The study analyzes the use of the Blue-Bot robot to enhance oral language development in five-year-old children attending a rural kindergarten in Corrientes, Argentina. Four children with language difficulties participated in a four-week intervention that included programming activities and classroom observations. The results indicated improvements in verbal fluency, pronunciation, and vocabulary, fostering verbal interaction and peer decision-making. Teacher mediation was crucial in enriching the linguistic environment. These findings highlight the value of educational robotics as a strategy to integrate technology and communication in early childhood education, particularly in rural contexts with limited opportunities for language stimulation.
