The work reported in this paper is informed by PerFECt, a performative framework supporting collaborative learning and creativity that addresses issues related to the effective use of digital technologies to establish and sustain learning communities. Its core principles are reinterpreted to implement unplugged collaborative learning activities to creatively explore sciences, technology and mathematics with special emphasis on the core principles of algorithmic design by presenting recipes in the form of flow diagrams. By presenting the execution of algorithms within a drama-based (theatrical) framework many creative explorations are offered within the so called STEAM education. The adoption of playful activities that put the children's bodies in motion is well aligned with pedagogical approaches that emphasize embodied knowledge and performance and open up opportunities for deeper personalized learning experiences that promote inclusion of children from different cultural backgrounds.

“…Consequently, this framework addresses issues related to the effective use of digital technologies to establish and sustain learning communities. The framework is also applicable in the analysis of serious games (Márkus et al, 2018) cultural heritage systems (Dochev et al, 2019) as important means to foster engagement and creativity in learning. However, its core principles, as discussed in this paper, can also be employed to implement unplugged collaborative learning activities.…”

This paper presents how the PerFECt Framework for establishing and sustaining learning communities can be combined with innovative approaches of teaching mathematics using drama, to develop unplugged activities to introduce the binary system in primary and secondary school students. The resulting Human Calculator theatrical game enables students, using their bodies, to learn the binary representation of numbers and discover the algorithms of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
