Pinto, Ana Lúcia; Zagalo, Nelson; Sylla, Cristina; Freed, Natalie; Figueiredo, Ana Carina; Qi, Jie; Branco, Pedro; Coquet, Eduarda

It has been 20 years since Pierre Wellner published the article Interacting with paper on the digital desk [1] where he challenges us to imagine a space where “Instead of replacing paper with computers we could enhance paper with computation”. Two decades after, we see the development of multiple projects that expand the expressive possibilities of traditional books by combining and crossing different media. Ne...


TUIs vs. GUIs : comparing the learning potential with preschoolers

Sylla, Cristina; Branco, Pedro; Coutinho, Clara Pereira; Coquet, Eduarda

In an effort to better understand the learning potential of a tangible interface, we conducted a comparison study between a tangible and a traditional graphical user interface for teaching preschoolers (In Portugal, children enter preschool at the age of three and they attend it till entering school, normally at the age of six) about good oral hygiene. The study was carried with two groups of children aged 4 to...

TOK : a tangible interface for storytelling

Sylla, Cristina; Branco, Pedro; Coutinho, Clara Pereira; Coquet, Eduarda; Škaroupka, David

We present the design of the first prototype of TOK - a tangible interface for children to create their own stories. Based on data collected with two groups of five years old preschoolers we present our findings regarding the interaction design of the system. The picture cards have shown to generate ideas, acting as input for the creation of stories, promoting creativity while proposing a framework that support...


TOK : developing a tangible platform for storytelling

Sylla, Cristina; Coutinho, Clara Pereira; Branco, Pedro; Zagalo, Nelson; Coquet, Eduarda; Škaroupka, David

This paper describes a first study of a tangible interface, consisting of a platform and a set of picture cards that children can use to create stories. The handling of the picture cards has shown to be highly motivating and engaging, helping children to build a storyline creating logical relations among different characters and objects. The interface works like an experimental space where children can play wit...


Beyond the binding : exploring the future book

Freed, Natalie; Qi, Jie; Sylla, Cristina; Branco, Pedro

We have reached a special moment in the story of the book: today’s youngest generation will experience literature in a vastly different way than the generation preceding. What we call a book has always morphed over time, but digital capabilities and the ubiquity of mobile electronics are changing the landscape at an unprecedented pace. This workshop will be a forum for creative exploration and discussion of the...


Is it a book…is it a game? No, it is TOK

Sylla, Cristina; Ângelo, Pedro; Coutinho, Clara Pereira; Branco, Pedro; Zagalo, Nelson; Coquet, Eduarda

The interface presented here aims at helping children to create their own stories and to reflect over their narratives, in a process whereby they learn how to build logical sequences, enhancing their vocabulary and literacy. At the same time we wanted to make it easier for young children to interact with digital content, through the tangibility of the interface.
