Abstract

This paper describes a study that investigated the use of d-touch markers in designing learning content for knowledge sharing activities. It looked into design aspects children takes into account in ensuring that the learning content would be understood by their peers. It is believed that emerging design syntax, placement and accompanying visual cues within the markers helped in perceiving the learning content. This paper demonstrates children's view on the use of d-touch markers where they designed and used them within a Malaysian elementary school learning environment.
