About

Maiga Chang is a leading researcher in educational technology, with a focus on human-robot interaction, game-based learning, and augmented reality applications. His work explores how emerging technologies can transform education, particularly through the design and perception of educational robots. In his highly cited 2009 paper, "Exploring Children’s Perceptions of the Robots" (31 citations), Chang investigates how young learners view and interact with robotic systems, providing foundational insights for integrating robots into classrooms. His earlier 2008 study, "Human-Robot Interaction Research Issues of Educational Robots" (7 citations), outlines critical challenges in making personal robots affordable and practical for schools, bridging the gap between technological advances and pedagogical needs. Chang also contributed to the field through his editorial role in the proceedings of the 6th International Conference on E-learning and Games (Edutainment 2011), which highlighted innovations in virtual and augmented reality for education. His research has shaped the development of interactive learning environments, influencing how educators and technologists approach the use of robots and games to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes.
