About
Elena Kolani is a researcher whose work sits at the intersection of educational technology, robotics, and 21st-century skill development. Her primary research focus is on how non-formal educational settings, particularly robotics academies, can serve as powerful cognitive-learning tools to foster critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration in students. In her most cited work, "The case of the Robotics Academy @ Frederick University: 21st Century Skills Developed through a Non-formal Educational Setting" (2020), Kolani evaluates the impact of a purpose-built robotics curriculum, demonstrating how visually compelling and realistic environments can transform learning. Although her citation count is still growing, this paper has been instrumental in shaping discussions around integrating robotics into education beyond the traditional classroom. Kolani’s contributions are notable for bridging the gap between theory and practice, offering a concrete model for educators seeking to equip students with the skills needed for a technology-driven world. Her work stands as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners interested in the pedagogical potential of robotics.
