MARI LUZ GUENAGA
Lecturer and researcher at the Faculty of Engeneering, University of Deusto
PhD in computer engineering, I am lecturer at the Engineering Faculty – University of Deusto, since 1998, and director of Deusto LearningLab group (2011-2022). I obtained my PhD with the thesis “Integral Accessibility of Digital Resource Centres for People with Visual Disability”. My research interests focus on the innovative use of technology in STEAM* education, learning analytics and game-based learning. I teach subjects related to computer programming, human-computer interaction and data visualization. I participate in European projects aiming at improving STEM education, developing computational thinking skills among primary and secondary school students, and raising their interest towards technology, especially among girls. I also participate and organize dissemination and knowledge transference actions to reach the educational community and improve the STEAM education with the result of our work.

From an early age, girls disregard studies related to science, technology, engineering, or mathematics (STEM), and this means that a gender gap begins during secondary education and continues to increase over time. Multiple causes have been identified for this phenomenon in the literature, and numerous initiatives are being carried out to reverse this situation
Lempel is a game designed to foster computational thinking skills, particularly pattern recognition, among primary and secondary school students.
Inspira STEAM is a pioneering project whose objective is to promote interest in science and technology among young people, especially girls. It is based on awareness-raising and guidance actions given by women, and also men, professionals from the world of research, science and technology.
GREENGAGE aims to promote innovative governance process and help public authorities in shaping their climate mitigation and adaptation policies. To achieve this, the project aims at developing GREENGAGE Observatories focusing on mobility, air quality and healthy living for the delivery of carbon neutral neighbourhoods.
SCIREARLY aims to enhance children’s learning and well-being in schools, addressing challenges and early leaving. We want to reduce early school leaving and underachievement by looking at how to enable children to learn and thrive in schools and complete their education.
