Wordcraft: Playing with Sentence Structure. Anand, D., Shreyas, Sharma, S., Starostenko, V., DeSouza, A., Ryokai, K., & Hearst, M. In Proceedings of the 2015 Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in Play, of CHI PLAY '15, pages 439–444, New York, NY, USA, 2015. Association for Computing Machinery. event-place: London, United KingdomPaper doi abstract bibtex We introduce Wordcraft, a new interactive tablet application that allows children to explore sentence structures and their meanings. Wordcraft uses a constructionist design: children manipulate word cards to build sentences, which come to life in a storybook-like animated world to illustrate meaning. Such visual feedback helps children play with parts of speech and understand how they fit together to form sentences. Preliminary studies suggest that children are able to observe and discuss how different sentence constructs result in different meanings.
