Teaching Tangible Interaction Remotely During COVID-19: Transcending Physical Boundaries
Orit Shaer, Diana Tosca
Abstract
Teaching pervasive computing courses is challenging during "normal" times,1 let alone during a global pandemic. With the transition to remote learning due to the COVID-19 crisis, we invested much effort into a comprehensive redesign of our tangible and embodied interaction (TEI) course for an online format. In this article, we share our experience and lessons learned from teaching this remote version of our undergraduate TEI course during Fall 2020.
