ABSTRACT : This paper presents a comparative study of cognitive mediations between pedagogical devices dedicated to introduced robotic/ computer science to last section of kindergarten learners. The ludo-pedagogical session “Blue Bot” used for the experimentations was declined in three modalities: the body, the robot and digital tablets. This study highlights how mediator instruments influence acts of teaching through the identification of professional gestures, postures an

ABSTRACT : This article presents an educational setting intended to introduce 5-6 year olds pupils to the loop concept. It articulates unplugged activities, problem solving and creative activities through an online platform. The analysis of observations and digital traces collected in an ecological setting shows that it is possible to introduce basic algorithmic concepts by relying solely on visual patterns identification, avoiding spatial tracking difficulties (robot movements). We al

Vol 6 - Issue 1 By proposing to study both the genesis and the actuality, but also the implementation and the reception of digital games in the educational worlds, this thematic file aims at enriching the reflection in two fields of research, that of the "educations to" and that of a digital (or informational) culture.

Edutainment is the idea of using games, or even serious games, to mediate learning. It's about going beyond games as simple rewards or extrinsic motivational levers: “if you do your exercise well, you'll be able to play”. With edutainment, games are used as a tool or resource for learning. For example, it can be used to provide concrete representations of experiences, to test hypotheses, to stimulate pedagogical interaction between learners or with those proposing the activity...With

On February 5, 2020 in Lille, as part of the “Didapro” Francophone computer didactics symposium, a workshop entitled “MOTIF..MOTIF..MOTIF.. is to repeat MOTIF... 3 times” was proposed. (https://www.didapro.org/8/programme/#atelier). The aim of the workshop was to introduce young Cycle 1 pupils (kindergarten and first grade) to computer thinking through two edutainment sessions involving teachers and researchers. The proposed activities were game-based, with the pedagogica

Abstract. In the idea of evaluating a Ludopedagogy sequence, it is necessary to have a systematic evaluative model taking into account different parameters: context, learner, useful dimensions, interactions, interactivities... It is in this dynamic that we proposed the CEPAJe model which proposes to cross five dimensions: the context, the teacher, the educational scenario, the learner and the game. In order to illustrate the use of the CEPAJe model, this article proposes to review three con

Ludo Pedagogy – Why use it?Ludo Pedagogy is a pedagogical method that uses games or serious games. The simple fact of using games or serious games into a pedagogy, inscribes us in edutainment. Let us specify, however, that there are several ways of using games in a pedagogical framework. Thus for Yvan Hochet, we can teach "with", "by", "about" and "around" the game (Hochet, 2013). In a modern edutainment approach, the challenge is to teach "with
