Abstract

The management of teaching and learning using collaborative teaching robots (Co-teaching robots) is a form of educational management in the digital age that promotes the development of essential skills in the 21st century, aligning with the changing dynamics of the current world that emphasize technology and innovation. This research aims to study the role of robots in educational management, the advantages and limitations of teaching and learning using the Co-teaching robots, and the factors influencing success in this context. The study was conducted using a mixed methods research with exploratory sequential design, starting with a qualitative research phase by selecting the 12 key informants using purposive random sampling method from among calculus, computing, science, and mathematic teachers who were later interviewed in this study. In the second phase, a quantitative study was conducted with a sample of 226 teachers in three southern border provinces, who were selected by means of simple random sampling method. The questionnaire was employed as a tool to collect the data in this phase. The descriptive statistics consist of frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation and inferential statistics include One-Way ANOVA and Multiple Regression. The findings indicate that the Co-teaching robots play a significant role in educational management by enhancing the learning experience and serving as teaching assistants. Advantages of integrating the Co-teaching robots into education include data accuracy, unlimited data accumulation, while the limitations of teaching and learning using the Co-teaching robots include teacher attitudes, data input and accuracy. With regard to the success factors in teaching and learning with Co-teaching robots involve financial support for robotics development, the mindset of school administrators and teachers. The overall level of factors leading to success in teaching and learning using the Co-teaching robots was found to be high. This research is a guideline for organizing new and modern teaching and learning methods to enhance teachers' awareness and cultivate a positive attitude toward integrating new-age technology into teaching and learning to improve the quality of education in the digital age.
