Today educational process’s entire focus is shifting towards innovation, creativity, technical advancement. Educational robotics meets modern requirements and has a positive effect on the development of student's personality. With progress in technology, the accessibility of robotics to children in learning process has improved. Formal education system is reaching a new level. In compliance with the requirements of the Federal State Educational Standard, according to which the main approach in modern education is the action approach, robotics takes a practice-oriented direction, which suggests project implementation. According to educationists, project based learning in robotics is not only a great way to provide students with a more efficient technological education, but it also the most effective method of acquiring twenty-first-century skills such as self-directed learning, critical thinking, problem solving, work planning and communication. The research problem is the use of the potential of project-based learning in robotics in the development of student's personality. Purpose: to test in practice the positive impact of project based learning in robotics on the development of student's personality Based on the goal of the study, we identified the following tasks: - to analyze the organization of project based learning in robotics at school; - to reveal the potential of project based learning in robotics; - to study the basics of the project based learning in robotics while taking into account age characteristics; - to analyze the research results. The article includes the main stages of scientific projects development. It also presents the students experience in project-based learning in robotics. The article reveals positive dynamics in development of student’s personal qualities in the course of research and gives examples of projects that were highly appreciated by the jury. The research results confirmed that project-based learning in robotics contributes to the development of student's personality, if the age characteristics and the main features of their motivation are taken into account. The joint work of the teacher and students is necessary for them to acquire the skills required for the successful project work in robotics.
