Seymour Pappert was born in South Africa. He is a mathematician and an early pioneer of artificial intelligence. He is also co-founder of the Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT. His new book, "The Connected Family:Bridging the Digital Generation Gap" focuses on how computers have influenced learning in children. He also has a companion website for the book. www.connectedfamily.com
He is currently involved in a website he produced. www.mamamedia.com Mamamedia is a website that uses activities/projects to encourage learning in young children. The website helps teach children about technology and the Internet using language they can understand. Kids can not only play games and surf the web, but also create cards, buttons, t-shirts, and much more. I enjoyed this site and am recommending it to my own kids.
