Exploring the use of Android devices and LEGO Mindstorms in Children Color Learning Process

Students are becoming less and less interested to learn about science and technology which causes alert to the education industry. The lack of usage of technology itself in education causes the students to be uninterested to learn as they can only learn the theory but cannot see how it is impleme...
