    If you are a parent or a teacher you need ...
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 13, 2015*

If you are a parent or a teacher you need to read this. Papert is one of the few people in the world who understands the power of the computer and how it could be harvest by children. This book is his family friendly version of Mindstorm, his masterpiece on computer and education.What you need to know is that Papert doesn't believe in software that will substitute teachers and textbooks. He defends, since 1960's, that the computer is a powerful tool by itself, but you and your children need to be able to unleash its power.

    A Simple Idea, Belabored
  

*by R***G on Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 1999*

Children will learn more, given the chance, by random exploration on a computer than by directed lessons or "educational software."  There, I've saved you the trouble of reading "The Connected Family," which does little more than play variations on this tune for  200 pages.Papert is an important figure in early learning circles,  though his Piaget-inspired faith in undirected learning may strain your  credulity.  The point that computers encourage non-linear exploration is  well-founded (just ask anyone who has lost a day on the internet) and  designers of kids software should pay heed, since they often treat the  computer as just another linear information-delivery vehicle.  But Papert's  book here is itself rather long on repetition and short on insight, much  like the software Papert decries.Several stories from Papert's own  family and friends are used to illustrate his basic theme.  Don't get me  wrong, it's charming and likable (hence two stars instead of one) but  ultimately a little thin in the content department.
