Abstract

This demo focuses supplements our paper "From Computational Thinking to Computation Making" to allow visitors to interact with the various technologies the children in our club created, including an interactive monster. Additionally, to make the demo interactive and to encourage conference attendees to discuss their experience of "making" we will have a Monster Making contest.

Empowering children through design and making: towards protagonist role adoption
PDC '18: Proceedings of the 15th Participatory Design Conference: Full Papers - Volume 1

Inviting children to adopt a Protagonist role regarding technology has recently become advocated. Such a role embraces the original political participatory design (PD) agenda and aims at empowerment of children through design and making. However, so far ...
Engaging Children in Remotely Ideating and Programming Smart Things
CHItaly '21: Proceedings of the 14th Biannual Conference of the Italian SIGCHI Chapter

Recent research tried involving different end-users in the design of smart things, such as smart watches that sense high temperature, process it, and react by vibrating. Designing new smart things is a lengthy process, which requires exploring what ...
Computational making, binary gender and LEGO
GenderIT '18: Proceedings of the 4th Conference on Gender & IT

This paper presents an analytical case study using the "Computational Making" framework to critique three LEGO sets. These sets were marketed towards girls and focus on making. Our contribution is showing computational making can be used to investigate ...
