This paper aims to introduce the general theme of developing and using innovative teaching/learning environments based on the harmonic integration of (a) Embodiment Cognition theoretical perspective; (b) recovering well known and traditional psycho-pedagogical practices (i.e. logical blocks, teaching tiles, handwriting); (c) using Smart Technologies (i.e. RFID/NFC sensors, augmented reality systems, intelligent interfaces, etc.); (d) developing Adaptive Tutoring Systems in order to support learners and teachers (or parents) actions.

Abstract

This paper aims to introduce the general theme of developing and using innovative teaching/learning environments based on the harmonic integration of (a) Embodiment Cognition theoretical perspective; (b) recovering well known and traditional psycho-pedagogical practices (i.e. logical blocks, teaching tiles, handwriting); (c) using Smart Technologies (i.e. RFID/NFC sensors, augmented reality systems, intelligent interfaces, etc.); (d) developing Adaptive Tutoring Systems in order to support learners and teachers (or parents) actions. We describe our experiences in the framework of Block-Magic an EU funded international research project. In particular, we present the first prototype of Block Magic learning/teaching environment in which children and teachers interact with Logic Blocks enriched with RFID sensors and an Adaptive Tutoring System that support (enhance) learning/teaching process.. Moreover, we provide a trials description which are currently performed in Germany, Greece, Italy and Spain
