About
Josiane Mukagihana is a dedicated education researcher whose work centers on STEM pedagogy, teacher professional development, and student engagement in Sub-Saharan Africa. Her most impactful study, "Impact of the African Institute for Mathematical Science Teacher Training Program on Students’ Interest to Learn Mathematics and Science, Rwanda" (2023), rigorously evaluates a large-scale intervention involving 7,058 trained teachers across 14 Rwandan districts. By surveying 228 secondary students, Mukagihana demonstrated that the AIMS-TTP significantly boosted learner interest in mathematics and science, providing critical evidence for policy-driven teacher training models. This work has garnered 4 citations and stands as a key contribution to understanding how structured professional development can transform classroom dynamics in resource-constrained settings. Her research bridges the gap between program implementation and measurable student outcomes, offering actionable insights for educators and ministries of education. Mukagihana’s scholarship is particularly valuable for its focus on equity and access in STEM education, highlighting the ripple effects of teacher capacity-building on student motivation. As an emerging voice in African educational research, she continues to shape conversations around sustainable, evidence-based interventions that foster long-term academic interest and achievement.
