Process

In this page the process of the summing up scenario is given. Scenario 1 is the first one we made and 4 the final one.

Summing up scenario version 1

This version of the summing up scenario has the following significant elements:

In the top beginning, there is a choice for which game the child wants to play (to improve interactivity with the child)
There is a choice element whether the child should throw first or the NAO throws first (to improve interactivity with the child)
The responses of the robot in this version are still somewhat "static" in the sense that they don't really really take into account the answers of the child (for instance at "Do you want to start?" and "What number did I throw?"

This version of the summing up scenario has the following significant elements:

There are less intermediate question 'diamonds' (for instance, we do not include the "maybe"option anymore with the question "Do you understand the game?". The reason is that we think that not all questions or answer cases are that relevant versus how overwhelming many questions could be for the child. Also, we think that the robot should be guiding/take the lead (as a teacher) in the game.
We added an extra question right at the start of the game; "would you like to learn how the game is played?". This is done so that when the student has already played the game and remembers the rules, he/she does not have to hear the tutorial again.
When guessing the numbers, the child does not get a 'hint' anymore as in version 1, but instead he/she can just try again once, and otherwise the number is revealed by NAO
