Recent results from psychophysics and developmental psychology show that children have a preferential sensory channel to learn specific concepts. In this work, we explore the possibility of developing and evaluating novel multisensory technologies for deeper learning of arithmetic and geometry. The main novelty of such new technologies comes from the renewed understanding of the role of communication between sensory modalities during development that is that specific sensory systems have specific roles for learning specific concepts. Such understanding suggests that it is possible to open a new teaching/learning channel, personalized for each student based on the child’s sensory skills. Multisensory interactive technologies exploiting full-body movement interaction and including a hardware and software platform to support this approach will be presented and discussed. The platform is part of a more general framework developed in the context of the EU-ICT-H2020 weDRAW Project that aims to develop new multimodal technologies for multisensory serious-games to teach mathematics concepts in the primary school.
