A conceptualmodel differs from the formal structures of hypothesis testing in the sense that it is exploratory innature. That is, it looks to uncover any existing relationships between the considered variables,based either in theory or in empirical evidence, instead of testing the magnitude or direction ofhypothesized relationships 15. Our model proposes that students entering an engineering programmay already have certain levels of global competency, and that these potential differences arecritical in designing strategies and interventions at the college-level.

ConclusionWe have developed a visual programming environment, which can be used by K-12 students tolearn basic concepts of programming through robot-programming. To illustrate the ease,education, and fun value of our approach, a maze-based educational game has also beendeveloped. The game requires the user to program a robot through our visual tool to navigate themaze and score points that are distributed throughout the maze. The paper has provided details ofthe visual tool, two mobile robots, and the maze-based games. Preliminary results suggest avariety of programming-based robot games can be developed to impart
