Trees of life
Maria C. R. Harrington · 2006
Children possess vivid imaginations and freely, almost impulsively, share new knowledge with peers. At times, they also create art spontaneously or in response to powerful experiences. How can we best design interfaces to virtual and augmented reality technologies to support children in their independent quests for knowledge and acts of creation? In this paper I introduce a prototype of a virtual environment that is intended to support scientific inquiry and artistic creativity for young children.
