Proceedings of the 17th ACM Conference on Interaction Design and Children, 2018•dl.acm.orgUPDATED---April 30, 2018. In math curriculum, probability is one of the most difficult
concepts for students to understand [7]. With the intention of making abstract math concepts
more concrete, we designed Tree It to facilitate third and fourth grade students' construction
of the sample space for probabilistic events through the visualization of a tree diagram. With
a constructionist perspective in mind, our design incorporates a tangible user interface (TUI)
along with customizable tangibles and activities. This gives learners the ability to explore …

This gives learners the ability to explore concepts of permutations through systematic enumeration by moving tangible objects.
