  Some areas of human activity - medicine, transport, entertainment - have changed beyond recognition in the wake of modern science and technology. This text discusses why the revolution in learning with computers has not taken place in schools. Papert demonstrates how children can master areas of knowledge that are normally found difficult, with computer-based media. He also recommends computer games as an educational tool.
