Investigating The Role Of Mutual Cognitive Environment For End-User Programming

In this paper we present a situated end user programming approach where user co-constructs, in an iterative process, a mutual cognitive environment with the system. We argue that co-construction of a mutual cognitive environment, between both the human and the system, is a key toward social human-computer interaction. Preliminary results are illustrated with a step by step case study: a user teaches the system new perceptual and abstract concepts using hand gesture and an interactive learning table.
