a Summary, etc This study investigates robotics education to support science and technology courses for primary school education in Private Evrim College in Istanbul. This research is a kind of case study on a group of students who are having a robotics education. The robotics education is not only providing information to students about robot making also help them to improve their skills and abilities. First starting point is introducing equipments for designing electronic circuits and teaching fundamental principles for robot making. Robotics education performed with 16 students between 10 and 15 years old and they are distributed in 4 groups. In the research, it will be seen that students can learn and apply their skills on designing circuits while they are discussing with classmates by the means of collaborative learning and project based learning. Also, students have been attended to the race in their schools. Furthermore the winner group is competed in a robotics competition which is held every year in Istanbul Technical University. Consequently, the findings and evaluations help to understand that robotics education to support students' life, moreover, affecting their science performance and relationships with friends in class positively.
