Physical Computing: Promoting Movement with Virtual Technologies and Scratch
FCIS Convention, Learn Today! Learn Tomorrow - FCIS, Orlando, FL (2019)
The Greene School Computer programming is no longer a stationary, seat-oriented experience! Interact with MIT Scratch
via Virtual Reality. Virtual technologies, in conjunction with Scratch, allow students to move their entire body to design and
code custom animations. Participants have an opportunity to take peer-based design requirements (verbal) and translate
these (sequentially) into working algorithms, all whilst utilizing their body (increasing blood flow to brain) to accomplish
aforementioned. In this session, there is an emphasis on engineering design methodologies.
MIT Makey Makey & Scratch: Understanding Hardware/Software Relationship through Play
Scratch @MIT - MIT Media Lab, Cambridge, MA (2018)
In this hands-on workshop, participants worked with craft electronics and computational switches (e.g., Makey Makey) to
build a physical computing interface that activates an interactive, animated Scratch story. Turn everyday objects into
interactive projects with MIT Makey Makey, an electronic invention kit. Makey Makey encourages children to find creative
ways to interact with their computers, by using everyday objects.
