About

Carlo Ricci is a researcher at the forefront of educational technology, with a particular focus on bridging the gap between tangible, physical learning and digital innovation. His most cited work, "Bridging Digital and Physical Educational Games Using RFID/NFC Technologies" (2014, 42 citations), explores how low-cost technologies like RFID and NFC can create augmented reality environments that merge hands-on object manipulation with digital tools. This research highlights his core contribution: designing interactive systems that honor traditional psycho-pedagogical methods while leveraging modern affordances to enhance engagement and learning outcomes. By integrating physical game pieces with digital feedback, Ricci’s work has influenced the development of hybrid learning spaces, offering a practical pathway for educators to adopt technology without sacrificing tactile experience. His approach is particularly notable for its emphasis on accessibility and cost-effectiveness, making advanced educational tools viable in resource-constrained settings. With a growing citation footprint, Carlo Ricci continues to shape how we think about play, interaction, and the seamless fusion of physical and digital worlds in education.
