About
Arianna Marras is a rising scholar in educational technology, with a focused expertise in educational robotics (ER) and its integration into formal learning environments. Her work critically examines how teachers perceive and implement robotics in classrooms, bridging the gap between technological innovation and pedagogical practice. Marras led a systematic review of Italian scientific journals on ER (10 citations), mapping the national research landscape and identifying key trends in how robots are used to support learning. She further advanced the field by psychometrically validating the Robotics Interest Questionnaire (RIQ) for Italian teachers (5 citations), providing a robust tool to measure educators’ attitudes and self-efficacy—a crucial factor for successful ER adoption. Her most recent study explores ER’s potential to train attentional control and executive functions in schoolchildren, opening new frontiers for cognitive development through technology. By combining rigorous methodology with practical classroom insights, Marras is helping to shape evidence-based approaches for integrating robotics into education, making her work valuable for both researchers and practitioners seeking to harness ER’s full potential.
