- 3. Concept Make a D.I.Y/D.I.W.O (do it with others) mobile labstudio that becomes our extended sense while engaging with a space.
- 4. DIY Portable Labstudio Make youown equipment Extend your senses Engage with a space Visualizations and audioscapes
- 5. Experiments, building skill andinspiration.
- 6. Arduino Arduino 8 keypiano Experimenting with the ultrasonic sensor * What did you learn with doing the Arduino? Why Arduino? -Arduino allows you to plug in sensors -it acts as an interface between the sensor and the computer and outputs values -you can customise logic, play around.
- 7. Explorations * I waslooking for something to make, to inspire and I just kept watching and searching… collecting ideas. Knowing what is possible what can be done.
- 8. Explorations Researched about theDIY spectrometer. Didn’t end up making…. - frustrated with not being getting the wrong motor - frustrated about not being able to understand stepper motor driver. - turned out that I bought the wrong motor- unipolar motor.
- 9. Few Articles * Informalresearch on some existing maker curricula’s and some an example of existing instructional resources for teachers.

- 12. Constructionism Constructionism suggests that peoplelearn best when they make things. One is learning by building on what they know, learning through experience, discovery and problem solving.

- 19. Observations • “this isso cool! I feel like scientist working in a lab!” -Rahul while soldering • Manu (7 years) didn’t want anything to do with the “hot stuff”. He’d rather I do the hot stuff and he do the cold stuff. • One child decided to not make both bots but two of the same bot. • Joining of tables • The lab space served as an place for multiple engagements- music, food as well as working
- 20. Insights • No competition •Children chose their level of complexity and paced themselves • There was lot of problem solving involved with respect to the drawbot • Children learn from each other and learn from watching • Conversations (in and out of context) • needed facilitation with things unfamiliar to them
- 21. Observations • Only madethe drawbots. • Didn’t get too much into decoration of the bot. • Mr. Mekhri made the bot exactly as per the instruction where as padmini experimented with different positions of the sketchpens. • They didn’t make any add ons.
- 22. Observations • Got intodecoration of the bot extensively • Was interested in the various materials she could use in order to make the bot more expressive.

- 26. What is it? •Light following bot with a two LDRs. • respective motors move according to the amount of light information on the respective LDRs • It can float on water
- 27. Troubleshooting • Need tobalance out the weight • Change the orientation of the LDRs.
- 28. Possibilities • Colour sensitivebots • Plug-in any sensor - temperature, gas , pressure, humidity • When floating on water - Microscope, Turbidity sensor, measure salinity, record underwater sounds. • Attach a webcam/ IRcam/ Thermal-cam • Synth Bots • Use a programmed chip to make it behave in a specific manner.
- 29. How can theseBots collect data? • Bluetooth • Radio frequency • Hack a remote controlled car • Store information on an SD card and collect the data when the bot is retrieved. • Arduino
