Code Weaver: A Tangible Programming Learning Tool with Mixed Reality Interface
Ren Sakamoto, Toshikazu Ohshima · 2019
In this study, we developed Code Weaver, a tool for learning basic programming concepts designed for elementary school or younger children. A tangible user interface of this tool can be programmed by directly combining parts with a physical form by the users’ hands. In this way, we attempted to resolve several problems, including the typical obstacles encountered in learning programming languages by small children such as text input via a keyboard, strict syntax rule requirements, and difficulties associated with group learning involving multiple participants.
