About

Jean-Philippe Pellet is a leading researcher in computational thinking (CT) and educational robotics (ER) for primary education, with a focus on bridging the gap between emerging technologies and classroom practice. His major contributions include developing and validating a computer science and robotics integration model for K-4 teachers, demonstrated through a large-scale pilot study involving approximately 350 primary schools in Switzerland’s Canton Vaud. This work, cited over 60 times, provides a practical framework for embedding CS into curricula. Pellet’s most influential paper (86 citations) explores how feedback and guidance interventions foster CT in ER learning activities, offering evidence-based strategies for educators. His research is notable for its direct impact on teacher training and curriculum design, addressing the urgent need for scalable, effective methods to cultivate 21st-century competences in young learners. By combining rigorous empirical studies with actionable classroom interventions, Pellet has established himself as a key figure in the movement to democratize computer science education from the earliest grades.
