About
Dr. Bruna Ferreira is a leading researcher at the intersection of educational technology and skill development, with a primary focus on Education 4.0 and the cultivation of 21st-century competencies. Her most influential work, the 2018 case study "Education 4.0 and 21st Century Skills: A Case Study with Robotics Activities in Classroom," has garnered 17 citations and stands as a cornerstone in the field. In this study, Dr. Ferreira moved beyond competitive robotics to demonstrate how structured, maker-based activities—specifically those following the LEGO Education Maker process—can systematically foster critical skills like creativity, collaboration, and problem-solving in classroom settings. Her contribution is significant for providing a replicable, non-competitive pedagogical model that directly links hands-on robotics to the core competencies demanded by modern education. By shifting the focus from competition to process-oriented learning, Dr. Ferreira’s work offers educators a practical framework for integrating technology in a way that genuinely prepares students for the challenges of the 21st century, making her research essential reading for anyone interested in the future of teaching and learning.
