The MIT Media Laboratory and UCLA propose to develop and study a new networked, mediarich
programming environment, designed specifically to enhance the development of
technological fluency at after-school centers in economically-disadvantaged communities.
This project will build on our research team’s previous experience and success in two areas: the
development of innovative programming environments for youth, and development of innovative
informal-learning centers for inner-city youth. Our team’s research on “programmable bricks”
has been commercialized as LEGO MindStorms, used by millions of youth around the world.
Members of our research team co-founded the Computer Clubhouse project, a network of afterschool
learning centers for youth from economically-disadvantaged communities. The
Clubhouse network has expanded to 75 sites in 14 countries, with 20,000 youth members, and it
received the prestigious Peter Drucker Award for Nonprofit Innovation.
