Video Screening: Squeakers
Nov 19, 2003
7:00 pm

At this meeting, we will be showing the video called "Squeakers".  This
is an excellent documentary on Squeak and Alan Kay.  Here's the
description of the video:

Dr. Alan Kay, known as "the Father of the Personal Computer,"
has devoted his life to the subject of computers and early childhood
education. Thirty years of computer innovation and a deep understanding
of how children learn is behind his Squeak
programming language - and the new math and science projects shown here
with fourth to sixth graders.
A 44-minute Hi Def film of interest to parents, educators, and anyone
concerned about how children learn, SQUEAKERS features
Alan Kay, Jerome Bruner, Seymour Papert, and a special appearance by
Quincy Jones.
