About

Dr. Giel van Lankveld is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of educational technology, STEM pedagogy, and human-computer interaction. His work focuses on leveraging digital tools to make complex, hands-on learning accessible in online and blended environments. Van Lankveld’s most cited paper, "Educational Robotics at Schools Online with Augmented Reality" (2024, 3 citations), addresses a critical gap exposed by the COVID-19 pandemic: the challenge of teaching robotics and STEM subjects without physical presence. He systematically developed and evaluated an augmented reality framework that allows students to interact with virtual robotic components, effectively bridging the gap between tangible experimentation and remote instruction. This contribution is notable for its practical, scalable approach to maintaining engagement and learning outcomes in digital classrooms. Van Lankveld’s research is characterized by its direct response to real-world educational crises, offering evidence-based solutions that empower teachers and inspire students. His work not only advances the field of educational robotics but also sets a foundation for resilient, technology-enhanced learning models that can withstand future disruptions.
