About
Yago Mariano Barbosa is a researcher dedicated to the intersection of educational robotics and social transformation. His work centers on developing innovative, hands-on methodologies that make technology accessible and impactful, particularly within the Brazilian educational context. Barbosa’s major contribution is his leadership in designing and implementing the "Robotics at School" project through the Red Dragons robotics team at Universidade Federal de Sao Carlos (UFSCar). This initiative demonstrates how robotics can serve as a powerful tool for social change, moving beyond technical skill-building to foster community engagement and critical thinking. His most-cited paper, "Building a Robotics at School Project with Social Transformation" (2021), has garnered 5 citations, establishing a foundational reference for educators and researchers exploring low-cost, socially-conscious STEM education. By documenting the process of applying innovative methodologies in underserved schools, Barbosa provides a replicable model for using robotics to address real-world challenges. His work is a compelling example of how engineering education can be a vehicle for equity and empowerment.
