About
Walid Boukadida’s research lies at the intersection of educational technology, human-robot interaction, and motivational psychology, with a focus on leveraging social robots to enhance science learning. His most cited work, “ROBOMO: Effects of a Motivational Intervention to Address the Barriers During Science Learning” (2017), introduces a novel design that uses cognitive dissonance as a teaching tool within robotic platforms to overcome student disengagement and conceptual barriers in STEM education. By integrating motivational interventions with robotic agents, Boukadida explores how social robots can serve as catalysts for deeper knowledge acquisition, particularly in contexts where traditional methods fall short. Although his citation count is currently modest—with this key paper garnering 2 citations—his work represents a pioneering step in merging robotics with cognitive psychology to address real-world educational challenges. Boukadida’s contributions are notable for their interdisciplinary approach, offering a blueprint for future studies on adaptive, robot-mediated learning environments. As the field of educational robotics expands, his research provides a foundational framework for designing interventions that not only teach content but also reshape student attitudes toward science, making him a promising voice in the ongoing dialogue between technology and pedagogy.
