About

Dr. Anna Felicia is a leading researcher in educational robotics and computational thinking, with a focus on integrating technology into primary and secondary education. Her seminal 2014 review, "A Review on Educational Robotics as Assistive Tools For Learning Mathematics and Science" (21 citations), critically examined the effectiveness of robots in Malaysian classrooms, establishing her as a key voice in contextualizing STEM education tools. Building on this, her 2017 study "Computational Thinking and Tinkering: Exploration Study of Primary School Students’ in Robotic and Graphical Programming" (17 citations) demonstrated how hands-on robotics and graphical programming can foster essential 21st-century skills like problem-solving and logical reasoning in young learners. Dr. Felicia’s work bridges the gap between theoretical frameworks and practical classroom applications, showing that even simple robotic activities can cultivate computational thinking. Her research has influenced curriculum design and teacher training programs, particularly in Southeast Asia, by providing evidence that playful, tinkering-based approaches effectively prepare students for a technology-driven world. With a growing citation impact, Dr. Felicia continues to shape how educators harness robotics to make mathematics and science accessible and engaging for all students.
