| Research Abstract |
In this research, we developed CarettaKids, a system that integrates the shared space and personal spaces that allow children to work individually without being interfered with by others. CarettaKids was introduced into the social context of actual classroom environment to evaluate whether integration of personal and shared spaces can help promote children's participation in synchronous/co-location interaction in the classroom and deepen their understanding. As a result of analysis of interactive actions using videotaped records of classroom lessons and preand post-tests, the effects of CarettaKids in a pedagogical setting was proved.
