About

Nadia Benjelloun is a Moroccan educational researcher whose work focuses on integrating educational robotics and mobile technology to transform science learning in middle schools. Her research addresses a critical challenge: declining student motivation and performance in physics and chemistry across Moroccan classrooms. Benjelloun’s major contributions include designing and testing low-cost educational robots—such as the EducThermoBot—to teach thermodynamic concepts, and combining robotics with mobile tools for pH instruction. Her 2023 study on educational robotics and thermodynamics (8 citations) demonstrated that hands-on robotic activities can significantly boost student engagement and conceptual understanding compared to traditional methods. A 2024 follow-up (3 citations) extended this approach to chemistry, showing similar motivational gains. Her comparative work (2 citations) between the EducThermoBot and computer-assisted experiments (EXAO) further highlights the practical advantages of low-cost robotics in resource-limited settings. Benjelloun’s research is notable for its direct classroom application in Moroccan public schools, offering scalable, affordable solutions to improve science education. With a growing citation record, she is emerging as a key voice in STEM pedagogy for developing regions.
