Haptic feedback displays are an emerging technology that have the potential to enhance how children and their parents interact with and learn about science concepts. In this project, I designed and tested TCircuit, an application for a variable friction touch-screen display (i.e., Tanvas Tablet) that enables learners to feel electric current flowing through a circuit diagram by touching the display.
