About

Angela Stewart is a leading researcher at the intersection of culturally-responsive computing education and human-robot interaction. Her work centers on empowering underrepresented youth—particularly Black girls—as technosocial change agents through co-creation with social robots. Stewart’s most cited paper (2023, 15 citations) introduces a novel framework for positioning girls as co-creators of robot agents, moving beyond traditional artifact creation to foster unique, identity-affirming relationships with technology. Her 2021 study (7 citations) on agentic engagement with programmable dialog systems explores how children can form deeper, more autonomous connections with pedagogical robots. Stewart’s 2025 paper (5 citations) further demonstrates her impact, documenting how Black girls in a culturally-responsive robotics camp transform from technology consumers to creators. Her work has garnered increasing attention, with citations spanning education, human-computer interaction, and robotics. Stewart’s notable achievements include pioneering comic-boarding methods to understand language use in human-agent dialogue (2023, 2 citations) and multimodal sensing of goals during robot co-creation (2024, 1 citation). By centering equity and agency, Stewart is reshaping computing education to be more inclusive and empowering for diverse learners.
