About
Mariia Gladun is a leading researcher in STEM education, with a specific focus on integrating robotics into primary and elementary school curricula. Her work centers on how robotic tools can cultivate key competencies and subject-specific skills in young learners, bridging the gap between theoretical STEM concepts and hands-on, motivating learning experiences. Gladun’s most influential paper, “ФОРМУВАННЯ КЛЮЧОВИХ І ПРЕДМЕТНИХ КОМПЕТЕНТНОСТЕЙ УЧНІВ РОБОТОТЕХНІЧНИМИ ЗАСОБАМИ STEM-ОСВІТИ” (2018), with 21 citations, explores how robotics serves as a catalyst for developing 21st-century skills. Her comparative studies on the perceptions of prospective and in-service teachers (cited 9 and 3 times) provide critical insights into the practical and pedagogical challenges of classroom implementation. Gladun’s research uniquely addresses educational, legal, and technical aspects of robot use in elementary settings, demonstrating that educational robots significantly boost student motivation. By consistently highlighting the teacher’s role and the need for tailored professional development, her work has shaped modern approaches to early STEM education, making her a key voice in preparing students for a technology-driven future.
