  • A 'safe and covert" environment, where the child can assume almost any role without social or physical hurt is an important part of the day.
  • an environment which is immediately responsive to the child's activities and allows him to gain a model of himself is tremendously important.
  • "The trouble with new math is that you have to understand it everytime you use it"

    I great re-print from 1972, where Alan Kay describes, even draws what is effectively a tablet or eBook, and argues for it's technological and pedagogical value in schools. Amazingly he priced this at $500, which was quite a sum back then, and almost exactly the price of netbooks and tablets today.
