Now, which of these do you think is better than Revolution for
teaching
programming to young children? The Klingon one?
This is obviously not a question.
I simply think that the very notion of programmg language is too
narrow to fit the abilities of a young child. Fortunately enough, S.
Jobs et al have shown that "programming" is not restricted to a Turing
machine operating on a stream of ASCII characters.
As an example, my kids have very much enjoyed a "game" called the
wonderful inventions of Pr Tim, where you assamble various "machine
parts", some with physical counterparts and others being more
abstract. This is programming in 2D, and higher dimensions would be
certainly stimulating.
