About
Dr. Jannon Farkis is a leading voice in STEM education, with a focused commitment to integrating robotics into K-12 curricula. Her most-cited work, "A Partnership To Integrate Robotics Curriculum Into Stem Courses In Boston Public Schools" (2020, 8 citations), exemplifies her core research area: designing and implementing scalable, hands-on engineering programs within public school systems. Farkis’s major contribution lies in bridging the gap between university research and classroom practice, demonstrating how strategic partnerships can place middle school students on a path to meet state and national workforce demands. By addressing the critical need for early exposure to robotics, she has helped shape a model for equitable STEM access in urban districts. Her work is notable not only for its practical impact on curriculum design but also for its emphasis on teacher professional development and community engagement. Farkis’s research continues to influence how educators and policymakers think about preparing students for a technology-driven future, making her a vital figure in the movement to democratize engineering education from the ground up.
