I was excited to share our new pictorial at #IDC2023 featuring photo-visuals from Family Creative Learning to share visuals as "knowledge-building artifacts": "Imagining Alternative Visions of Computing: Photo-Visuals of Material, Social, and Emotional Contexts from Family Creative Learning" https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3585088.3589235

Thank you so much to the entire #IDC2023 team that gave us such a great conference! I had missed this conference and am so glad I came this year. Hope to get together again next year, in Delft, the Netherlands! ❤️
The final social event of #IDC2023 was the widely-recommended Chicago River Architecture Tour, and it did not disappoint!!
However, Dr. Kirkorian during Q&A noted that more recent studies are showing that kids are exhibiting less of this so-called "video deficit" as they are growing up more familiar with screens. For tasks that are harder cognitively, though, the video deficit still happens. #IDC2023
Dr. Heather Kirkorian showed us research that found kids up to five years of age are worse at understanding information they see in video than in real life, which seems to have interesting implications for screen time and Baby Einstein etc. Interactivity in the experience can improve their understanding; however, STORIES have the real power since "real-world learning is interactive, dynamic, and messy." #IDC2023
It's fascinating that child development research shows that kids learn more education content from story-based educational videos when they understand more about the STORY (e.g., narrative content). But there's no effect when just the education content is emphasized for them. Great keynote by Dr. Heather Kirkorian at #IDC2023
Last but not least is the closing keynote for #IDC2023 -- Dr. Heather Kirkorian, an expert on child psychology and developmental science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, speaking on early learning in the digital age. So important to remember how our work in child-computer interaction affects and is affected by child development in the real world. https://childdevelopmentlab.wisc.edu/staff/kirkorian-heather/

One of the best and most unique aspects of the IDC conference is the Research & Design Challenge which solicits design ideas and solutions from kids themselves around a different theme each year. The theme for #IDC2023 was "how can smart machines help create more compassion within our communities?" 1/2
Post lunch today at #IDC2023 included some of the applications I found most compelling, in multisensory learning. Nice to see some multimodal research here!
