I am supporting a school with kids as young as Kg2 starting to learn about computers, playing with tux** games and having a feel of the environment around computers. With the proliferation of mobile phones and tablets as gaming devices, maybe we need to rethink how to introduce structure to the learning process, and not to rigidly set the content. </span></div><div class="yiv9683849621MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></div><div class="yiv9683849621MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;">3: I feel like we seem to be emphasizing on a certain subset of IT when learning / teaching kids, maybe we need to develop a platform agnostic approach. A few years ago introduction to computers had the basic parts of a computer that honestly, are hard to use today in an era of monitor / cpu fused into one. With touch devices, Input / output devices are one. </span></div><div class="yiv9683849621MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></div><div class="yiv9683849621MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;">4: The challenge is two faceted. There needs to be an upgrade program both on the teaching front, and on the learning front.

Because what was taught last year cant be what would be taught next year. </span></div><div class="yiv9683849621MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;"> </span></div><div class="yiv9683849621MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;">I would love for us to draw lessons from France Vs Englad re: the Industrial revolution.
