Abstract

In this paper we present the results from a study in which participants (n=26, aged 6-9) were exposed to two different ER systems, one based on tangible tile-based programming and one on visual block-programming. During the transition from the first to the second system, mediated transfer of knowledge regarding computational concepts, were observed. Furthermore, the participants CT skills were likewise observed to improve throughout the study, across both ER systems.
