Facilitating Students' Expressive Language Development Through a Five-Day Robotic-Based Storytelling Summer Camp

This design case focused on creating and implementing a five-day summer camp to enhance students’ expressive language development through robotics-based storytelling. The camp used VEX GO robotics and storytelling elements to promote language skills. Participants, aged six to ten, engaged in structured lessons, game-based activities, and group projects to create stories and animate their characters. Student feedback indicated high levels of engagement and enthusiasm, particularly for the hands-on activities and collaborative projects. While the camp was successful, we identified areas for improvement, including clearer guidelines for the final project and better integration of expressive language skills into daily activities.
