Description
The department has a strong track record of research in interactive educational technology and tools. Current projects include the Exploratories project to create “interactive illustrations” embedded in hypermedia frameworks; JERPA, a system for managing and distributing programming assignments and their associated support material; and ReMarkable Texts, an innovative note-taking system designed for TabletPCs. In addition, we are ongoing participants in the design of DrScheme, one of the leading teaching-motivated and student-friendly programming environments. The department also offers a seminar in educational software in which students create software based on the needs of local teachers. The seminar has produced dozens of programs for K–12, higher education and educational institutions such as the Providence Children’s Museum.
