Keynote Speaker: Albrecht Schmidt

Programming Ubiquitous Computing Environments

Computing becomes a part of our everyday environment. Interaction in the “real world” is more and more determined by ubiquitous computing sys- tems that are tailored to fit a specific environment. These systems can only be created with strong domain knowledge. End users may be the right group to de- velop or at least tailor such systems. We show two examples of how domain expert can program systems: one looks at how to transfer programming by demonstration to ubicomp scenarios and the other on how to use examples as recipes for a new development. In the outlook we extrapolate from current prac- tices of sharing videos to a future where multimodal and sensor-rich examples can be continuously recorded and may become the basis for new approaches for a truly user-centered development of cyber-physical systems.

Opensource Hardware and Education

Arduino is a free, opensource hardware platform that can be repro- grammed with a piece of opensource software. Software that reprograms hard- ware allows people to transform the way they understand and interact with the world because electronics are omnipresent in our everyday activities. Elevators run with microcontrollers, in an average car there are seventy microcontrollers and even a microwave oven has microcontrollers. The goal of Arduino is to empower people other than engineers to understand interaction paradigms such as physical, tangible and ubiquitous computing and to create their own interac- tive artifacts with digital electronics. Eventually, it democratizes learning by practical experimentation so that learners discover how to be independent, how to use things by themselves, how to exploit those things to build interactive sys- tems by themselves and how to be critically demanding about technology.
In this talk, I will introduce the feature that makes a free hardware platform such as Arduino a powerful learning tool that foster creativity and I will talk about a vision for the computing education for the 21st century: accessible and pleasant approaches to teach kids how to reprogram the surrounding environ- ment. To this end, I will share experiences and insights gathered from project- based learning experiments with Arduino in secondary schools.
