\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Last week, Ben Grey<\/a> asked me, “In 5 tweets or less, can you share your vision for computing in education?” via Twitter. I’m not sure if anyone else was asked or the motivation behind the question, but I quickly rattled off the following five tweets. I could have accomplished the goal in fewer tweets, but a good tweet is a terrible thing to waste.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The computer amplifies human potential by allowing learners to make things and explore powerful ideas otherwise impossible,<\/li>\n
  2. The computer is a protean material with which you can make all sorts of shareable artifacts, theories and powerful ideas.<\/li>\n
  3. The computer allows abstract ideas to be concretized through programming. simulation and modeling.<\/li>\n
  4. The computer makes Papert’s “Mathland” possible where students can be mathematicians rather than being taught math.<\/li>\n
  5. “The computer is an instrument whose music is ideas” – Alan Kay<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/blockquote>\n
