Here's the hypothesis to this video: When traditional printed instructions are presented as 3D illustrations that can be freely manipulated in space, and scrolled through in time (giving the learner both spatial and temporal control), plus additional visual crutches such as real time 3D modeling with a "big picture" view, the learner is more likely to exhibit behaviors associated with persistence, and are less likely to get bogged down when reaching a bottleneck. In other words, this technique can be used to increase engagement. In this video Corey, aged 22 years, works with his teacher and LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Builder to create a robot. He discusses his thinking and use of the app. The question, in brief... Can tablet delivered instruction be seen as a "frustration management agent." I think it can.
