This study aims to understand students' views on project development in coding and robotics courses. Focusing on student study groups in this field seeks to provide a broad view using qualitative and quantitative methods. The study group consists of students taking the coding and robotics course. A semi-structured interview form developed by the researcher was used. The data collected during the research were obtained through face-to-face personal interviews. As a data collection tool, the interview form consists of 22 questions. Within the scope of the study, open-ended questions were analyzed through content analysis, and frequency and percentage distributions were used to determine their opinions. With the findings obtained, it was tried to reveal the difficulties encountered by students in coding and robotics courses and their strategies to overcome these difficulties, the effects of the skills they gained (e.g., problem-solving, creativity, communication) on their daily lives, how students develop teamwork, cooperation skills, technology use, and computer programming skills, and the effects on students' self-confidence, motivation and learning. This study will be an essential step in understanding the impact of coding and robotics courses on students' project development processes.
