About

Dr. Moe Sakamoto is a leading voice at the intersection of robotics education and inclusive STEM pedagogy. Her primary research focuses on designing and evaluating project-based learning curricula that leverage collaborative robotics to engage underrepresented students, particularly in high school settings. Her most cited work, "Teaching Collaborative Robotics: Design and Evaluation of Design-Based Learning Curriculum for High School STEM Education" (2025), has already garnered 6 citations—a strong signal of its growing influence. In this study, Sakamoto introduced a novel co-robotics curriculum that integrates robotics, computer science, and assistive technology, demonstrating how hands-on design challenges can foster both technical skills and social awareness. Her contributions are notable for bridging the gap between advanced robotics research and accessible classroom practice, offering a replicable model for broadening participation in STEM. By centering assistive technologies, she also highlights the societal relevance of engineering, inspiring students to see robotics as a tool for real-world impact. Sakamoto’s work is essential reading for educators, curriculum developers, and researchers committed to equity-driven, design-based learning in robotics.
