 CHILDREN AND COMPUTERS 
 We are already familiar with computers – computers work for us at home, in offices, in 
industry. But it is also true that many children today are using computers at school before they can 
write. What does this mean for the future? Are these children lucky or not? 
 Many people who do not know about computers think of them as machines that children play 
with. They worry that children do not learn from experience but just from pressing a button and that 
is not good for them. They think that children are growing up not knowing about the real world.
