About

Kwong Chiu Fung is a rising researcher at the intersection of educational technology, human-robot interaction, and special education. His work focuses on harnessing multi-modal robots to transform learning environments, with a particular emphasis on student engagement and inclusive education. Fung’s most cited paper, “Exploring the impact of robot interaction on learning engagement” (2025, 23 citations), compares two multi-modal robots to reveal how robotic interaction can significantly boost student motivation and participation. He has also pioneered robot-assisted scenario training for students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), developing tailored interventions that help these learners navigate new social environments and understand appropriate behaviors. Further extending his impact, Fung investigates demographic effects in robot-empowered language learning, applying self-determination theory to enhance both engagement and proficiency across diverse student populations. His cumulative work, already garnering attention with over 28 citations, demonstrates a clear commitment to making learning more accessible and effective through technology. Fung’s research not only advances the field of educational robotics but also offers practical, evidence-based tools for supporting neurodiverse learners.
