Seeing Programming Seeing: Exploring the pedagogical values of Functional Errors in creative coding.

Seeing Programming Seeing: Exploring the pedagogical values of Functional Errors in creative coding.

Sykes, Jennifer ; Grierson, Professor Mick ; Fiebrink, Professor Rebecca ;

Full paper:

Creative coding has been gaining momentum as a “mainstream offering” (Young 2021) within Art Schools over the past two decades. However, as a discipline within Art Schools it is still relatively new as a creative pathway. As the use of code as a material for creative expression becomes increasingly prevalent, the methods for teaching creative coding within Art Schools have also begun to diversify. This paper presents a range of alternate teaching examples that emphasise reflective problem solving through error when teaching creative coding within Art Schools. The paper will review how these examples are implemented, the impact they have on student comprehension, and the future educational tools they support.
