Fabric Robotics - Lessons Learned Introducing Soft Robotics in a Computational Thinking Course for Children

Abstract: In this paper we present findings from the current and last year's season of a CT course: we investigated how soft materials enriched learning of CT in relation to embedded systems and creative thinking practices. We also addressed gender biases in the course, as we observed how boys and the few girls in the course responded to the practices related to fabric prototyping and sewing, when moving from LEGO Mindstorms to wearable devices and soft robotics. Data gathering was conducted following a qualitative appr… Show more

“…Instrucciones. Ejercicios Atendiendo a los artefactos construidos por el alumnado analizado desde el enfoque metodológico, observamos que desde las propuestas dirigidas la mayoría de las creaciones se centran en brazaletes luminosos (Ball et al, 2017;Del Valle-Morales et al, 2020;Erete et al, 2016;Nugent et al, 2019;) y peluches interactivos (Kuznetsov et al, 2011;Pedersen et al, 2020;Rode et al, 2015;Weibert et al, 2014). Mientras que las propuestas que se basan en metodologías activas son más diversas, incluyendo, principalmente, mandos de videojuego textiles Lo et al, 2013;Vasudevan et al, 2015) y múltiples diseños de vestibles con sensores, musicales y luminosas (Ananthanarayan y Boll, 2020;Buechley, 2013;Schelhowe et al, 2013;Trappe, 2012).…”
