Download or read book Tim and the Computer written by Dennis E. Adonis and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-06-19 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the beginning of a series of children literature focused on helping children to better understand the fundamental aspects of computers. Children at the age of 2 to 4 (and even beyond) are more inclined to learn from stories rather than a direct instructional method. It would be sheer boredom and difficulty to get a child to effectively learn about computers unless there is a consistent, well put together story that actually teaches the child under the guise of telling them a tale. It is by far the best way by which the child would have an interest in what is being taught. Storybooks makes kids interested in the subject being taught, and provide a more simplified way in which recollection of the subject matter can be achieved. It is through this method that respected Guyanese Educational Author, Dennis E. Adonis seeks to help children better understand and retain essential aspects of a computer system, and by extension, help them to use it more effectively. After all, you can better use something if you understand what it is about, how it works and its many purposes. In such a case, we sincerely urges you to make this book an integral part of your child's computer training once they are between the ages of 2 to 4 years.

Book excerpt: In this revolutionary book, a renowned computer scientist explains the importance of teaching children the basics of computing and how it can prepare them to succeed in the ever-evolving tech world. Computers have completely changed the way we teach children. We have Mindstorms to thank for that. In this book, pioneering computer scientist Seymour Papert uses the invention of LOGO, the first child-friendly programming language, to make the case for the value of teaching children with computers. Papert argues that children are more than capable of mastering computers, and that teaching computational processes like de-bugging in the classroom can change the way we learn everything else. He also shows that schools saturated with technology can actually improve socialization and interaction among students and between students and teachers. Technology changes every day, but the basic ways that computers can help us learn remain. For thousands of teachers and parents who have sought creative ways to help children learn with computers, Mindstorms is their bible.
