About

Michela Tramonti is a leading researcher at the intersection of educational robotics (ER), computational thinking, and design thinking. Her work focuses on how open-source electronics platforms—such as Arduino and micro:bit—can transform STEM and humanistic education by fostering creativity, problem-solving, and multidisciplinary communication. Tramonti’s most-cited paper, “Design Thinking as an Auxiliary Tool for Educational Robotics Classes” (2023, 21 citations), demonstrates how 3D printing and prototyping platforms enrich ER curricula. Her earlier study, “Computational Design Thinking and Physical Computing” (2020, 20 citations), provides foundational observations on preparing students for future skill demands through multidisciplinary engagement. Tramonti also explores student engagement via computational thinking and robotics (2018, 6 citations), and proposes a method for multi-perspective convergence in ER (2021, 2 citations). Her contributions are notable for bridging technical prototyping with pedagogical design, offering practical frameworks that empower educators to integrate robotics across disciplines. With a growing citation footprint, Tramonti’s research is shaping how schools worldwide equip students with the creative and analytical skills needed in a technology-driven world.
