About
Jelle Roets is a researcher dedicated to broadening participation in STEM education through creative, interdisciplinary approaches. His work centers on integrating art and robotics to engage underrepresented groups—particularly girls and underprivileged students—in science and technology learning. Roets’ most cited paper, “Building ArtBots to Attract Students into STEM Learning” (2016, 5 citations), introduces a novel method: using artistic robots (ArtBots) as a gateway to spark curiosity and build confidence in STEM fields. By merging the aesthetic appeal of art with the technical challenges of robotics, he demonstrates how hands-on, creative projects can lower barriers to entry and foster inclusive learning environments. This contribution is notable for its practical, low-cost approach to addressing persistent equity gaps in STEM education. While his citation count is modest, Roets’ work has influenced educators and curriculum designers seeking innovative ways to inspire diverse learners. His research underscores the power of art-infused STEM—or STEAM—to make technical concepts accessible and exciting, offering a blueprint for engaging students who might otherwise be overlooked.
