Table of Contents

We encourage contributions from teachers, researchers and software designers who would like to illustrate how technology can aid in the constructionist approach to learning, thinking and education. 
 
 
 
Papers can be case-based or theoretical. Presentations are generally twenty minutes in length and we will have both plenary sessions as well as smaller groupings. 
 
 
 
We are always eager to hear about new uses and extensions to the Logo computer language but we are also eager to hear from those using other languages and technologies. 
 
 
 
We hope to mix constructionists from a variety of disciplines: mathematics, social and physical sciences with the arts and humanities. 
 
 
 
Teachers of younger students are especially welcome and are encouraged to actively participate and to show examples of their students’ work. 
 
 
 
We have heard from people interested in the following areas. Please suggest others! (info@constructionism2010.org)
