About
Um Albaneen Jamali is an educator and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of educational technology, creativity development, and gifted education. Her scholarship focuses on harnessing robotics-based learning environments to cultivate 21st-century skills — particularly creative thinking — among elementary and gifted primary school students. Jamali's most influential contribution, "Fostering Creativity Using Robotics Among Gifted Primary School Students" (2019), has garnered 13 citations and demonstrated through a rigorous pilot study how LEGO robotics integration can meaningfully stimulate creative capacities in young learners. Building on this foundation, her longitudinal study published as "Developing Creativity via LEGO and AI Robotics" (2023) extended this inquiry over two years, employing a mixed-methods design combining pre-post CAP assessments and structured observations across a sample of 60 students. This sustained research trajectory reflects her commitment to evidence-based pedagogical innovation, advancing our understanding of how hands-on AI and robotics programs can be systematically embedded into early education. Jamali's work offers valuable guidance for educators and curriculum designers seeking practical, technology-driven strategies to nurture creative potential in diverse young learners.
