Whereas similar syntheses, such asthat performed by Benitti (2012), mainly considered the mundane functionality of roboticplatforms (i.e. what subjects/topics were taught; was robotics an instrument or the educationalfocal point; are robotics truly effective educational tools; etc.), the current review has proffered amore conceptual approach in our attempt to summarize the 119 studies. In short, the purpose of conducting our review was to: a) organize the studiesinvestigating K-12 robotics implementation under various themes in order to present a fluent andcomprehensible picture of the current state of research; b) present a synthesis of empiricalevidence

; however, there remains a lack of cohesiveengineering thrusts in primary and secondary school curricula [7]. This gap misses a hugeopportunity, as engineering design encourages students to critically think about importantsocietal challenges and link their work immediately to tangible outcomes which would promotecontinued interest in STEM. Hence, there is an emergent demand for (a) students who have hadsignificant, hands-on engineering and design experiences and (b) trained K-12 teachers who canimpart engineering and design principles to their students. To address the pressing need for high school engineering design training, particularly foryoung people from underserved minority populations, we have created the HYPOTHEkids (Hk)Maker Lab, a six

In another, students consider how Boolean operatorswould affect a search for multiple concepts.

Therefore, total video time wasrestricted to approximately 75 minutes, so that students watching on their own time would bespending the equivalent of one lecture slot doing so. Given previous studies showing thatstudents are more likely to prefer watching videos to live lectures if the videos are shorter[7], thetarget video segment length was 10-15 minutes. Appendix B summarizes the subtopics andvideo lengths for the course. This resulted in a typical assignment of 4-5 video segments perweek.   Figure 1 - Samples of Gapped Handouts (with Narrator Annotations) Videos were posted on
