About
Sandro Darcy Gaubert Mattos is a dedicated educator and researcher whose primary focus lies at the intersection of educational technology, robotics, and computational thinking in basic education. His most cited work, "Introdução à Robótica e Estímulo à Lógica de Programação no Ensino Básico Utilizando o Kit Educativo LEGO® Mindstorms" (2015), reports on the pedagogical impact of the extension project "Lego in Schools." Through this initiative, Mattos partnered with elementary schools to stimulate and teach programming logic in an inductive, hands-on manner, using LEGO Mindstorms kits to make abstract concepts tangible for young learners. While his citation count is modest, the real significance of his contribution lies in its practical application and grassroots impact—bringing robotics and coding into classrooms that might otherwise lack such resources. Mattos’s work exemplifies how research can directly inform teaching practice, bridging the gap between theory and classroom reality. His efforts highlight a commitment to democratizing access to STEM education, inspiring both teachers and students to engage with technology from an early age.
