Abeera P. Rehmat

Abeera P. Rehmat studies how engineering and computational thinking are taught in K-12 classrooms, focusing on curriculum design, teacher knowledge, and student experiences across elementary, middle, and high school settings. A recurring focus is 'biologically inspired design,' an approach that uses examples from nature to teach engineering concepts, as well as making engineering education more inclusive for diverse and neurodiverse learners. This work is primarily aimed at understanding and improving how teachers implement engineering curricula and how students, including underrepresented groups, engage with engineering ideas.

Publication output has been variable but generally increasing over the last decade, with a notable surge in 2020 and again in 2024, suggesting growing recent activity.
