1. I began working with Seymour Papert and the Logo group at the MIT AI Laboratory (which would become the Learning and Epistemology group at the MIT Media Lab) in 1976. I studied school settings in which the Logo language was integrated into the curriculum. My first round of studies of computers in education were reported in The Second Self: Computers and the Human Spirit (Cambridge, MA: MIT Press, 2nd revised edition, forthcoming)
2. Later work on education in the culture of simulation was reported in Life on the Screen: Identity in the Age of the Internet (New York: Simon and Schuster, 1995)

4. Indeed, in Life on the Screen I have gone so far as to argue that the computer is a carrier of postmodernism, that computation brings postmodernism 'down to earth'
