Given the polysemous nature of embodied cognition and an incomplete theoretical parsimony in the literature, we first clarify what precisely we mean by embodiment, the evidence taken to support this account, and what implications should arise from this theoretical framing.
A substantial number of design researchers have been inspired by embodiment theory to envision innovative platforms, materials, activities, and facilitation techniques that leverage the physical actions students perform as important resources for content learning (Lee, 2015; Malinverni, Ackermann, & Pares, 2016; Manches & O'Malley, 2016; Smith, King, & Hoyte, 2014).
Whereas researchers informed by embodiment theory generally agree that physical movement plays formative roles in fostering conceptual learning, they have yet to agree over methodology for engaging students in performing these movements (Abrahamson, 2015; Glenberg, 2006; Lindgren & Johnson-Glenberg, 2013; Pouw, van Gog, & Paas, 2014).
