According to the authors, the main reason for this effect is the robot&#8217;s physical presence: something traditional learning technologies lack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two further findings point the same way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In an experiment at Yale University (Leyzberg et al., 2012), 100 participants solved logic puzzles. Those who received the same personalised hints from a robot in the room became 5.8 minutes faster on average from the first puzzle to the last. Those who watched the same robot on video gained only 3.9 minutes, and those who only heard a voice 3.4 minutes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A review comparing 33 experiments (Li, 2015) found that people rated a robot in the same room as more persuasive and more positive than a robot on screen or a virtual character, and performed better with it. What matters is not the robot&#8217;s body, but <strong>being in the same space<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Limits and responsibility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The scientific picture is exciting, but its limits are also clear:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Effects were mostly measured in narrow, well-defined tasks: vocabulary learning, puzzles, basic mathematics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A robot alone does not teach better than a teacher. The real gain is in co-teaching.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The ethical questions are real: Sharkey (2016) draws attention, for robots working with children, to <strong>privacy<\/strong> (constantly sensing sensors, recorded data), <strong>attachment and deception<\/strong> (emotional bonds with a machine that seems to understand) and <strong>accountability<\/strong> (who makes decisions in the classroom).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In T\u00fcrkiye, student data falls under KVKK (the Personal Data Protection Law). Every installation must be designed with its data flows documented.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does PEXa Teknoloji do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We support educational institutions from idea to field in using physical AI in an evidence-based and responsible way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Selecting use cases and defining the expected learning value<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Robot selection, feasibility and budget<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Integration, commissioning and teacher training<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Data security and KVKK compliance<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:28px;margin-bottom:40px\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pexa.com.tr\/en\/iletisim\/\" style=\"border-radius:999px;color:#ffffff;background-color:#2b2e7e\">Schedule a meeting<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-outline\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pexa.com.tr\/en\/hakkimizda\/#hizmetler\" style=\"border-radius:999px;color:#2b2e7e\">All services<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list has-small-font-size\">\n<li>de Winter, J., Dodou, D., Moorlag, F., Broekens, J.
