About

Slimane Omari is a forward-thinking educational researcher based in Morocco, whose work sits at the intersection of technology-enhanced learning and science education. His primary research areas focus on integrating educational robotics and mobile technology to boost student motivation and comprehension in the physical sciences, particularly thermodynamics and chemistry. Omari’s major contributions include the development and testing of low-cost educational robots, such as the EducThermoBot, designed to make abstract scientific concepts tangible for middle school students. His most-cited study (2023, 8 citations) demonstrates that robotics can reverse declining motivation and improve learning of thermodynamic concepts, a critical issue in Moroccan education. A subsequent study (2024, 3 citations) extends this work to chemistry, showing how robotics and mobile tech enhance pH instruction among 160 students in Meknes. Omari’s comparative analysis of EducThermoBot versus computer-assisted experiments (EXAO) further underscores the superior impact of hands-on robotics on student engagement. By addressing real classroom challenges with innovative, accessible tools, Omari is shaping the future of STEM pedagogy in developing educational contexts.
