Plugramming : a tangible programming tool for children’s collaborative learning

Abstract

Plugramming is focused to take the advantage of collaboration comparing the other tools. It consists of module blocks and plug cables, and a user can create a program by connecting module blocks with plug cables. To evaluate this tool, we held a workshop and observed children. As the result, the physical advantage of making a program with tangible blocks could be confirmed. In the future we will continue the development while discussing the possibility to make various works.
