ABSTRACT
This paper argues that the "kindergarten approach to
learning" - characterized by a
spiraling cycle of Imagine,
Create, Play, Share, Reflect,
and back to Imagine - is
ideally suited to the needs of the 21
st
century, helping
learners develop the creative-thinking skills that are critical
to success and satisfaction in today's society. The paper
discusses strategies for designing new technologies that
encourage and support kindergarten-style learning,
building on the success of traditional kindergarten
materials and activities, but extending to learners of all
ages, helping them continue to develop as creative thinkers. "

"Can you test my app?"
"I just need to add a help menu."
These are not remarks at a Silicon Valley technology startup, but from an animated conversation in a classroom of 10- and 11-year-olds in the Los Altos School District in California. "
