About
Carla Da Costa Fernandes Curvelo is a dedicated researcher in Educational Robotics, with a primary focus on teacher training, curriculum development, and the integration of technology into K-12 classrooms. Her major contributions center on creating accessible, scalable systems to empower educators who lack technical backgrounds. Her most cited work, "EduRoSC-Prof" (2021, 12 citations), proposes a continuous education method and standard curriculum for training K-12 teachers in robotics, extending the EduRoSC-Kids framework. She also developed "Repo-Educ" (2023, 4 citations), a repository of robotics lesson plans, and an accompanying content recommendation algorithm (2023, 3 citations) to help teachers find relevant materials. Her 2023 paper on an automatic system for creating robotics courses further reduces barriers for educators, while her 2025 work explores using robotics to support students with learning difficulties. Curvelo’s research has accumulated over 20 citations, demonstrating growing influence in the field. By bridging the gap between complex robotics and practical classroom application, she is helping to democratize STEM education and ensure that even underserved students can benefit from hands-on, technology-driven learning.
