Came across Seymour Papert's "Teaching Children Thinking" essay:

dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/5

It captures almost exactly my philosophy of education, teaching,
computing, and so on.

I want to quote so much of it! Here's just one:

"The purpose of this essay is to present a grander vision of an
educational system in watch technology is used not in the form of
machines for processing children but as something the child himself will
learn to manipulate, to extend, to apply to projects, thereby gaining
a greater and more articulate mastery of the world, a sense of the power
of applied knowledge and a self-confidently realistic image of himself
as an intellectual agent."

I'm surprised at how the article -- from 1971! -- describes so many of
the programming-like things available today. So much of the
play-oriented things we have now -- games like Robot Turtles, various
robots that do path-following things -- are exactly what they were doing
over half a century ago.

Just got my author copies of Python for Mathematics! (routledge.com/Python-for-Mathe)

The book flips the usual programming order—starting with powerful maths tools before diving into code.

The publishers worked with me to agree to keep an online version available too: vknight.org/pfm/cover.html (This version needs updating!)

You can find some of my thoughts on how the book is structured here: vknight.org/2025/05/19/python-

More updates soon. 💻📘

If you think you are ‘just not a math person’ then think again

"By bringing mathematics into familiar, low-stakes situations, where the focus is on practical application and curiosity rather than performance, individuals can build more confidence in their use of it."

I've been thinking about this for ages, but never had the time to craft the words around it.

People keep saying that "Maths should be fun" ... and I push back with "It should be engaging ... 'fun' is a different thing.

So @rakhichawla has posted pretty much exactly this, but better than I ever could.

I'm copying it here with permission.

Please read this, then as it says at the end ... let's have a deeper conversation about this ...

1/n

(PS: I'd love this to get boosted to get outside my bubble ... you're all amazing, but there will be other opinions, and other thoughts that could be helpful or valuable)
