Folding Boat Design for children using a Graphical User Interface and a Robot Compiler.
## Goals (Research Deliverables):
## Goals (Deliverables):
Have a child, around the age of 5, design a boat on the Graphical User Interface (GUI) built, print the boat out, assemble the boat by folding and cutting it, and finally drive the boat on a body of water.

Translating kindergarteners’ creative expressions into engineering specifications to design paper boats.
## Goals (Research Deliverables):
## Goals (Deliverables):
- Write an experimental procedure that measures usable/successful GUIs for a 5 year old to interact with
- Create a GUI that is accessible/usable to a 5 year old
- Integrate the Robot Compiler (RoCo) onto the GUI
## Expectations (Steps):
- Determine what makes a GUI accessible/usable to a 5 year old
- Learn Python GUI Frameworks
- Determine what makes a GUI accessible/usable to a 5 year old by reviewing literature
- Plan presentation of GUIs to a 5 year old based on my experimental procedure
- Use data collection from meeting to narrow down usable/accessible GUIs
- Plan presentation of narrowed down GUIs to 5 year old based on my experimental procedure (refine experiemental procedure?)
- Use data collection from meeting to choose one GUI that was the most usable/accessible to a 5 year old
- Determine best GUI framework to create accessible GUI
