This article presents a literature review on the use of simulation platforms as a didactic tool for teaching robotics in education. The main objective is to analyze how these technologies can transform traditional teaching methods and foster 21st century skills. The review is based on an analysis of selected studies from databases such as Scopus, Web of Science and academic repositories specialized in education and technology. The findings show that simulation platforms offer a safe and dynamic environment for hands-on learning, allowing students to interact with real situations virtually. In addition, it is highlighted that educational robotics not only develops technical competencies, but also soft skills such as critical thinking, creativity and teamwork. However, significant barriers are identified, such as the lack of technological infrastructure, resistance to change in pedagogical practices and the need for continuous teacher training.
In conclusion, the integration of simulation and robotics platforms in the educational curriculum represents a valuable opportunity to modernize teaching and prepare students for an increasingly technological world. However, its effective implementation requires investment in resources, teacher updating and the integration of simulation didactics into the educational curriculum. Future research should explore strategies to overcome these barriers and evaluate the long-term impact of these tools on academic performance and skills development.
