Do Gestural Interfaces Promote Thinking? Embodied Interaction: Congruent Gestures and Direct-Touch Promote Performance in Math
… use of congruent gestures helps construct better mental representations and mental operations to solve problems (Gestural Conceptual Mapping). There is also evidence that physical manipulation of objects can benefit cognition and learning; it was therefore also hypothesized that manipulating …
