Abstract:
The study presents the design and creation of skill subtests battery. Before implementing the pedagogical experiment, the skill pretest and relevant subtests (PT1 to PT8) tested the psychomotor skills of students. There were two groups of students - the control group and the experimental group. Each group consisted of 10 students making 20 students overall. As part of the experiment, there was an effort to equalize the control and experimental groups. The results of the Mann-Whitney test showed statistically significant differences in the pretests in four subtests (PT1, PT2, PT3, PT8) between the control and the experimental group. The results of the pretests determine the students' skills before the implementation of the experiment. The experiment deals with the impact of the proposed distance education program on the quality and effectiveness of distance education. It aims to confirm the assumption formulated in hypothesis H1- the program will enhance the quality of teaching robotics, reflected in better skill posttest results. The study emphasizes the importance of technical education. It provides an objective assessment of students' skills and can facilitate planning the educational process.
