Eligibility of study

You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:

  • Conditions: healthy
  • Age: 100 years or below
  • Gender: All

This study investigates the role of embodiment and play in helping young students learn science. Embodiment refers to how physical actions and movements can help with learning. The study also looks at how new technologies can support this learning process and how teachers can assist students with these methods.

Participants will engage in activities that involve physical movement and using technology to learn science topics. Teachers will also be involved to see how they can support students in these activities.

  • Who can participate: The study is open to early elementary students aged 5-8 years who are learning science content.
  • Study details: If applicable, a placebo will not be used in this study. Teachers will be part of the study to facilitate support for the students.
