Computer Programming with Infants and Juniors
Jim Hind · Gifted Education International · 1984
Microcomputers are becoming increasingly common pieces of school equipment, giving rise to much discussion about the most effective way to use them as a teaching aid. This article argues that even extremely young children can be taught to program the machines right from their very first contact with them. A teaching strategy is proposed, having more in common with the teaching of language than with the more traditional didactic-reinforcement cycle commonly employed in the text books.
