About
Thays Mesquita Braga is a dedicated researcher in educational robotics and digital pedagogy, with a focus on teacher training and formative assessment strategies. Her work bridges the gap between emerging technologies and traditional curricula, particularly in the Brazilian educational context. Her most-cited paper, "Cooperative Learning in Robotics Teacher Formative Assessment Strategy Integrated with Brazilian National High School Exam - ENEM" (2018, 3 citations), addresses a critical challenge: the high rejection rate of robotics among teachers due to insufficient training and methodology. She proposes a cooperative learning framework that integrates robotics into classical subjects, using formative assessment to build a practical bridge between curricula and project-based learning. This work highlights her commitment to empowering educators with accessible, hands-on tools to engage students in STEM. Though her citation count is modest, her research is foundational for advancing robotics education in under-resourced settings, offering a replicable model for teacher professional development. Braga’s contributions are particularly notable for their focus on equity and inclusion, ensuring that innovative pedagogies reach diverse classrooms.
