The purpose of this research is to study the effect of robotics program on students attitude towards science. A total of 374 year 6 students (12years old) involving 10 primary schools from Malacca and Selangor have participated in this study. The researcher used Test of Science Related Attitudes (TOSRA) questionnaire developed by Fraser (1981) to measure students attitude towards science. In this study the researcher used a non-survey quantitative approach method with a quasi- experimental design involving treatment and control group. The changes in students attitude towards science was measured in three different times involving pre-test, post-test 1 and post-test 2. The researcher has performed two inferential statistical test, Repeated Measures Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and One-way Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) at significant level of
