About

Dr. Nnenna Ekpereka Ibezim is a leading researcher in computer and robotics education, with a focused mission to bridge the global programming skills gap through innovative, hands-on pedagogy. Her work centers on integrating project-based learning with Arduino robotics to transform how preservice teachers and undergraduate students develop computational thinking and programming competence. Dr. Ibezim’s seminal study, “Effect of project-based Arduino robot application on trainee teachers computational thinking in robotics programming course” (2023, 12 citations), established the foundational impact of tangible, project-driven robotics instruction on cognitive skill development. She has since advanced this line of inquiry, demonstrating that Project-Based Arduino Robot Applications (PARA) significantly boost undergraduate achievement and task persistence (2025, 5 citations). Her most recent contribution, the development of a dedicated PARA learning app (2025, 4 citations), directly addresses Nigeria’s shortage of trained robotics educators by providing a scalable, evidence-based tool for fostering programming competence. Through her research, Dr. Ibezim is not only advancing educational theory but also creating practical, deployable solutions to cultivate the next generation of skilled programmers and robotics professionals.
