Draw2Code is a paper-based computational kit for young children ages five and older to create interactive AR animations. You can transform your physical form of a drawing to a virtual sprite that moves across the screen by drawing, coloring, and manipulating paper coding blocks. You can learn basic computational thinking concepts and practices through the creation process.
