About
Federica Pelizzari is a leading voice in early childhood education and digital pedagogy, whose work bridges the gap between play and structured learning. Her research centers on the cognitive and socio-relational development of young children, with a particular focus on how coding and robotics can enhance foundational learning processes. In her landmark 2023 study, "Coding and childhood between play and learning," she demonstrated that introducing computational thinking to 4-year-olds not only boosts problem-solving skills but also fosters collaboration and emotional regulation. This work, already garnering 6 citations, has positioned her at the forefront of a growing movement to integrate technology into early education without sacrificing developmental appropriateness. Pelizzari’s contributions are notable for their rigorous methodological blend of educational and psychological media analysis, offering concrete evidence that coding can be a playful, powerful tool for cognitive growth. Her findings are reshaping classroom practices and inspiring educators to rethink how digital literacy begins in the earliest years.
