About

Dr. Rosana Chan is a leading voice in inclusive STEAM education, whose work centers on dismantling barriers to participation in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. Her primary research areas include educational robotics, gender equity, and diversity in technology-enhanced learning. Dr. Chan’s major contribution lies in demonstrating how robotics and computational thinking tools can serve as accessible, engaging gateways to STEAM for all students, particularly those from underrepresented groups. Her most cited work, "Educational Robotics for All: Gender, Diversity, and Inclusion in STEAM" (2020, 22 citations), provides a foundational framework for integrating these tools to foster inclusive classrooms. She further advanced this mission by developing and analyzing the massive open online course "STEAM4ALL," with preliminary findings on participant engagement and the critical role of gender-focused modules presented in her 2021 paper. Through her research and course design, Dr. Chan is actively shaping a more equitable future in education, proving that technology, when thoughtfully applied, can be a powerful equalizer in the classroom.
