Abstract
In this paper, we show the first prototype of a system called StoryTable, aimed at supporting a group of children in the activity of storytelling. The system is based on a special multi-user touchable device (the MERL DiamondTouch) and it was designed with the purpose of enforcing collaboration between children. The paper discusses how the main design choices were influenced by the paradigm of cooperative learning and presents two observational studies to assess the effects of the different design choices on storytelling activity. The main objective of the stues was to provide guidance for the next phases of the developmentFile in questo prodotto:
