About

Sophia Reyes Mury is a leading researcher in educational robotics (ER) and STEAM education, with a focus on bridging the gap between technology and classroom practice. Her work centers on how to effectively integrate robotics into school curricula to foster 21st-century skills like computational thinking, creativity, and collaboration. Mury’s major contribution is the development and study of Roteco, the Swiss robotic teacher community—a pioneering platform designed to support educators in implementing ER activities. Her most cited paper (2022, 16 citations) provides a practical framework for this support, while her subsequent studies (2021, 6 citations each) explore teachers’ motivations for joining such communities. By addressing the real-world challenges of teacher training and community-building, Mury has shaped how robotics can be sustainably embedded in schools. Her work is notable for its direct impact on educational practice, offering scalable models for teacher professional development. With a growing citation record, Mury is a key voice in making ER accessible and effective for diverse learning environments.
