Fields, Deborah A.; Kafai, Yasmin B.; Morales-Navarro, Luis; Walker, Justice T. – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
Much attention in constructionism has focused on designing tools and activities that support learners in designing fully finished and functional applications and artefacts to be shared with others. But helping students learn to debug their applications often takes on a surprisingly more instructionist stance by giving them checklists, teaching…

Han, Ahyoung; Wohn, Kwangyun; Ahn, Jaehong – International Journal of Technology and Design Education, 2021
Fashion designers in the digital era will be expected to have a profound knowledge of programming and physical computing. Therefore, finding effective methods to adopt E-textiles in fashion education is developing imperative furtherance. E-textiles are clothes embedded with microcomputers, digital components (sensor, LED), and other electronic…

Lui, Debora; Kafai, Yasmin; Litts, Breanne; Walker, Justice; Widman, Sari – Computer Science Education, 2020
Background and Context: Physical computing involves complex negotiations of multiple, on and off-screen tasks, which calls for research on how to best structure collaborative work to ensure equitable learning. Objective: We focus on how pairs self-organized their multi-domain tasks in physical computing, and how their social interactions supported…

Nugent, Gwen; Barker, Bradley; Lester, Houston; Grandgenett, Neal; Valentine, Dagen – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2019
Electronic textiles, especially those that can be worn (wearable textiles) are gaining traction within the P12 education community. The technology provides hands-on learning that is both exciting and personally relevant, especially for females, who have historically responded positively to aesthetics and textile design. A number of studies have…

Tofel-Grehl, Colby; Fields, Deborah – Science Teacher, 2015
Electronic textiles (e-textiles)--fabrics embedded with electrical or electronic components--offer a new model for teaching this content. E-textiles also engage students in programming and engineering design through nontraditional projects and materials. This article describes a four-week electricity curriculum using three e-textiles projects that…
