About

Pang Yee Jiea is a forward-thinking researcher in STEM education, specializing in the integration of 21st-century skills, robotics, and project-based learning (PBL) to prepare students for the demands of Industry 4.0. Her most cited work, "Integrated 21st Century Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) Education Through Robotics Project-Based Learning" (2019, 44 citations), proposes a novel framework that merges robotics PBL with critical 21st-century competencies such as collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving. This study, based on content analysis, outlines a curriculum that positions robotics as a dynamic tool for holistic STEM learning. In her earlier paper, "Integrated Robotics STEM Curriculum Towards Industry 4.0" (2018, 3 citations), she addresses the urgent need for university graduates to be equipped with skills aligned with cyber-physical systems and the Internet of Things, emphasizing real-world readiness. Pang’s work is notable for bridging educational theory and practical curriculum design, offering actionable pathways for educators to foster innovation in STEM classrooms. Her contributions are particularly impactful for researchers and teachers seeking to modernize STEM education through hands-on, technology-driven approaches that mirror the evolving industrial landscape.
