is a Thought Amplifier combining human abilities with computer affordances

Why?  Have fun  Learn by building about u History u Math u Music u Geology u Logic u Programming u Art

Thought Amplification Process Externalize ideas Create & tweak artifacts Visualize consequences Illustrate causality

EcoWorlds Elementary school kids design their own animals, share them through the web and explore the sustainability of the resulting EcoWorlds “I will eat you” “If I lower my reproduction rate this world will become more stable” Social creativity right here!

AgentSheets in India When the Jiva-Java Project started, its 20 secondary students had never used a mouse or seen the Web. Three weeks later, they had created applets (using Agentsheets authorware) and linked them to their own Web pages –Ed Gaible at the Jiva Institute Faridabad, Haryana, India

Out of this World (very distance education) NASA used AgentSheets to simulate an “E.coli in microgravity” experiment aboard the space shuttle Discovery with John Glenn
