The Connected Family: Bridging the Digital Generation Gap [With CDROM] Hardcover - 1996

by Seymour Papert

In simple language that cuts through computer speak and technical hype, "The Connected Family" answers fundamental questions about computers for concerned parents, including how best to use the Internet and the World Wide Web, what to do about cyberporn, what to look for when buying computer equipment, CD-ROMs and computer games, and how to keep up with their children's progress.


From the publisher

Discusses the advantages and pitfalls of using computers in childhood education, and suggests ways parents can help children who are more computer-literate than they.

From the rear cover

Accustomed from early childhood to using computers both at home and in school, the next generation is becoming more comfortable and technologically fluent than most adults. Papert shows us that this new-found independence in children's exploration of the world has profound consequences. Rejecting both the dire warnings of "cybercritics" and the fantasies of "cypbertopians", Papert addresses parents' most pressing questions on the formidable changes around us. He tells us how video games can be transformed into a positive learning experience; why much of "educational" software is contrary to the best principles of learning; why "cyberporn" is only part of the much larger issue of how the computer presence affects values; and, above all, how to bridge the digital generation gap that threatens to further separate children and their parents.
