Abstract

The notion of "pervasive computing" hastraditionally been identified with a focus on what might becalled "pervasive processing". This paper, in contrast,argues that the notion of pervasive computing can beprofitably extended to accommodate the burgeoningpotential of educational fabrication. We present severalprojects under way in our lab–projects that illustrate howfabrication devices can be employed in educational settings.We then use these examples to motivate a broaderdiscussion of scenarios for "pervasive fabrication" ineducation.
