We present a recent embodied-interaction instructional design, the Mathematical Imagery Trainer (MIT), for helping young students develop a grounded understanding of proportional equivalence (e.g., 2/3 = 4/6). The implementation of this design serves as our context for developing a heuristic design framework for instructional embodied-interaction activities.
