About
Manuel Trovisco is an educator and researcher whose work lies at the intersection of STEAM education, computational thinking, and challenge-based learning. His most cited work, the 2020 paper “Emídio Garcia School Pilot description: A Robosteam Erasmus+ Project Activity based on a Challenge based Learning Approach,” documents a pioneering pilot project at Emídio Garcia School in Bragança, Portugal. This study, part of the broader RoboSTEAM Erasmus+ initiative, demonstrates how integrating robotics and physical devices can foster computational thinking within a STEAM framework. Trovisco’s contribution is significant for its practical, classroom-based implementation of challenge-based learning, offering a replicable model for educators seeking to engage students through hands-on, interdisciplinary problem-solving. While his citation count remains modest—reflecting the applied, pedagogical nature of his work—his research has direct impact on curriculum design and teacher training in European educational contexts. By bridging theory and practice, Trovisco provides a valuable blueprint for using robotics to develop 21st-century skills, making his work essential reading for educators and researchers interested in innovative, technology-driven pedagogy.
