About

Dr. Sabiha Yeni is a leading researcher at the intersection of computational thinking (CT) and inclusive education, with a particular focus on how robotics and programming can transform learning for diverse student populations. Her most impactful work, a 2020 study with 72 citations, demonstrated that robotics instruction significantly improves sixth graders’ academic achievement, CT skills, and conceptual knowledge—a foundational contribution to K-12 STEM pedagogy. Dr. Yeni has also pioneered inclusive approaches, as shown in her 2022 paper (18 citations) on enhancing CT skills for students with disabilities, addressing a critical gap in equitable education. Her collaborative research on CT across curricula (2021) further explores how students and teachers perceive and integrate computational thinking beyond computer science classrooms. By blending empirical rigor with a commitment to accessibility, Dr. Yeni’s work not only advances theoretical understanding of CT development but also provides actionable strategies for educators. Her research has shaped how robotics and computational thinking are taught to both general and special education populations, making her a key voice in modern STEM education reform.
