again.As the complexity and the need to speed up engineering tasks continue to grow, one cannotdiscount the benefits of AI integration. The presence of complex challenges and the need toefficiently execute engineering tasks, by optimizing multifaceted team assignments becomesapparent and inevitable. Traditional team assignment methods, which rely on experience,knowledge, static criteria, and human intuition, may not always be attuned to the sometimes-dynamic nature of modern engineering tasks. To this effect, AI offers an alternative to thischallenge. With real-time data, insights about complex engineering tasks, and employeequalities, AI tools may be able to streamline team assignments and workflow to enhanceengineering project overall

This work-in-progress researchpaper examines the Robotics Education landscape for innovative approaches to introducingrobotics in K-12 education. Our goal is to design and develop interventions inspired by this studyin the future.
