SMALLab is an embodied learning environment where students are up out of their seats, moving as they learn. Developed by David Birchfield and his team at SMALLAB Learning, the mixed-reality environment provided an experimental design space for inventing new kinds of learning experiences for students. Working closely with my collaborators Kyle Li and Mike Edwards, we co-designed games with kids and educators tied to curricular units in math, science, social studies, and more.
The work was supported through funding by Intel and by the John T. and Catherine D. MacArthur Foundation.
