Jotbot

Jotbot

br br My memoir discussed the connection between constructivist educational theories and parametric design platforms. In five chapters I have explored ways of engaging with writing code for a visual outcome. I have analysed this process in relation to educational theories and claimed that visual code writing, or in other words, para- metric design, holds great learning potential. br br As an extension of my research, I have created my final project, with the aim of introducing children to basic elements of writing code for a visual outcome. Jotbot is a drawing robot, and children can make him walk and draw as they like, by writing short sequences to guide him. br br The sequence is created by arranging wooden cubes in a specific order. Combining functions and values to make jotbot move and draw, introduces children to a friendly and tactile parametric design system.
