A brief insight into our current research on “Nature-based Constructionism”
We could successfully present the initial results at theConstructionism Conference 2025 by ashort paper and a poster.
Currently, over 100 children have produced videos about plants. In the Design workshop, we combine constructivist learning with environmental education and explore how natural environments can promote digital learning. 🌱💡 The results show:
1. Narrative elements and reflection promote interest in plants and programming.
2. There were measurable increases in awareness, motivation, and self-confidence in using digital tools.
