About

Manuel Jesus is a dedicated researcher at the forefront of modern education, focusing on the intersection of computational thinking, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) education, and challenge-based learning. His most significant contributions center on the RoboSTEAM Erasmus+ Project, where he has led efforts to equip students with the critical skills demanded by our rapidly evolving digital society. By integrating robotics and physical devices into educational frameworks, Jesus has pioneered new pedagogical approaches that foster problem-solving abilities and technical proficiency. His work demonstrates how challenge-based learning experiences can effectively develop computational thinking, preparing learners to navigate and solve complex, real-world problems. With his key publications—including the highly cited "Exchanging Challenge Based Learning Experiences in the Context of RoboSTEAM Erasmus+ Project" (9 citations) and foundational project overviews—Jesus has helped shape a practical, hands-on methodology for STEAM education. His research is particularly notable for its direct impact on curriculum design, offering educators actionable strategies to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and the dynamic needs of the 21st-century workforce.
