1. Gears of My Childhood
Seymour Papert
A reflection
2. Learning environment
A life at the foot of this montains on a ranch
with lots of horses.
Wildness outside and freedom inside.
Just a few rules such as summer “siesta” time -
full of reading and stories.
3.
4. NO kindergarten ( just two little
brothers to teach!)
A mother as a pioneer, practicing
schooling teaching.
By the time I started school I was
reading and doing math in order
to resolve problems, although I
did not write exercises or
sentences if not needed!
5. I can swear, from that time I’ve
learned:
NO to saying yes if I’m thinking no.
NO to learning by heart but “from my
heart”.
NO to just following the flock .
NO to aceptting a “no” without a reason.
6. The more enjoyable
learning moments in
my life are
connected to my
capability to (…)
“retain in adulthood
attributes like
idealism,
experimentation and
wonder” (Joichi Ito)
