About
Dr. Seungki Shin is a leading researcher in STEM education, with a focused expertise in robotics curriculum design and computational thinking for elementary learners. His major contributions center on developing integrative STEM frameworks that embed computer programming within meaningful, hands-on robotics contexts. His most-cited work, "Developing an Integrative STEM Curriculum for Robotics Education Through Educational Design Research" (2017, 98 citations), provides a rigorous, design-based methodology for creating curricula that bridge engineering, technology, and science—offering a replicable model for educators worldwide. Dr. Shin’s research demonstrates how robotics can serve as a powerful vehicle for teaching foundational programming concepts, making abstract computational ideas tangible for young students. His work has directly informed classroom practice, showing that when students learn to code in the context of building and controlling robots, they develop deeper problem-solving skills and sustained interest in STEM fields. By establishing evidence-based design principles for K-5 robotics education, Dr. Shin has helped shape a generation of curricula that prioritize authentic, integrated learning experiences over isolated skill drills.
