contents The use of robots in education represents a challenge for teachers and a fixed vision of what robots can do for students. This paper presents the development of Sthymuli, a static educational robot designed to explore new classroom interactions between robots, students and teachers. We propose the use of the Thymio II educational platform as a base, ensuring a robust benchmark for a fair comparison of the commonly available wheeled robots and our exploratory approach with Sthymuli. This paper outlines the constraints and requirements for developing such a robot, the current state of development and future work.
