About
Gabriele Pozzan is a leading researcher in early childhood education, specializing in the intersection of computational thinking (CT), unplugged coding, and educational robotics (ER). His most-cited work, a 2023 study with 35 citations, demonstrates how combining unplugged activities and robotics training can significantly boost preschoolers' cognitive abilities and CT skills, offering a practical framework for integrating these tools into early curricula. Pozzan’s contributions are pivotal in bridging the gap between theoretical learning and hands-on, technology-driven instruction, showing that even very young children can develop foundational problem-solving and sequencing skills through playful, screen-free methods. His research has influenced educators and policymakers seeking evidence-based approaches to STEM education in early years. By highlighting the cognitive benefits of unplugged coding alongside robotics, Pozzan has helped reshape how we introduce programming concepts to children, making complex ideas accessible and engaging. His work continues to inspire new pedagogical strategies, ensuring that the youngest learners are equipped with critical thinking tools for the digital age.
