A brief intro
August 7, 2009 @ 10:22 AM

It would be good if we each introduced ourselves here. Nothing long - just to let us know a bit about yourself. I'll start.....

I have worked in the field of educational technology for more than 25 years, beginning by teaching both adults and students about computers and the Logo computer language. For more than 20 years I worked at Logo Computer Systems Inc (LCSI) and had the good fortune to work with Seymour Papert and many of his MIT students and colleagues including Mitchell Resnick, Yasmin Kafai, and Brian Silverman. During my stay at LCSI, I participated in the design of constructivist products based on the Logo language and philosophy, including LogoWriter (used extensively in the first laptop school, MLC) MicroWorlds, JournalZone, and the My Make Believe series, and authored and edited numerous teacher and student guidebooks. I retired as President of LCSI in 2007 and began working for AALF that year as its Executive Director.
