About

Dr. Marenice Melo de Carvalho is a leading researcher in the intersection of educational technology, the Internet of Things (IoT), and remote engineering education. Her most cited work, "Learning-IoT: Methodological Framework for Remote Robotics Teaching" (2022, 3 citations), addresses a critical challenge amplified by the COVID-19 pandemic: delivering hands-on, practical classes in a remote setting. Dr. Carvalho’s major contribution lies in developing a structured methodological framework that integrates IoT principles to enable effective distance learning in robotics. This framework provides educators with a replicable model to transition from traditional in-person labs to engaging, interactive virtual environments, ensuring students still gain essential practical skills. Her research directly tackles the pedagogical and logistical hurdles of teaching engineering and technology courses online, offering a scalable solution for higher education. By bridging the gap between theoretical instruction and hands-on application, Dr. Carvalho’s work has provided a vital roadmap for institutions worldwide, demonstrating how to maintain educational quality and student engagement during unprecedented disruptions. Her innovative approach continues to influence the design of resilient, technology-driven curricula for the future of STEM education.
