About

João Carlos Tonon Campi is a dedicated researcher and practitioner at the intersection of educational technology, social robotics, and community-driven innovation. His most-cited work, "Building a Robotics at School Project with Social Transformation" (2021, 5 citations), exemplifies his core contribution: demonstrating how low-cost, student-led robotics initiatives can drive meaningful social change in underserved Brazilian communities. As a founding member of the Red Dragons robotics team at Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCar), Campi has pioneered methodologies that blend hands-on STEM learning with social inclusion, empowering students to become agents of transformation. His research emphasizes the process of co-designing accessible robotics curricula that foster critical thinking and civic engagement. While his citation count reflects the emerging nature of this field, Campi’s impact is evident in the tangible outcomes of his projects—such as increased student motivation and community participation—and in his role as a mentor for future educators and engineers. His work stands as a compelling model for integrating technology with social purpose, inspiring a new generation to build not just robots, but a more equitable society.
