Aidsa Santiago-Román's work focuses on engineering education, particularly how students learn and misunderstand core mechanics concepts like statics and mechanics of materials. Her research develops and validates assessment tools (concept inventories) to measure student understanding, explores teaching methods such as inverted classrooms and simulation-based instruction, and examines broader issues like gender, culture, and diversity in engineering programs.
