Computer Skills

I'm wary of teaching Computer Skills for their own sake, like how to use MsOffice. But computers are key to lots of Thinking Tools, Stimulating Learning Projects, etc.

The Kids, in Elementary School, are working with

• Kid Pix

  • at home they're using Tux Paint and some other Open Source art app

• MsPowerpoint (for presentations, mainly as a pasteboard and place for bullet slides).
