] 03/01/2005 -- As more technologies make their way into
] children's schools, homes, and public places, the
] challenge is to design technologies that can keep up with
] the energy of children. Today's children are mobile,
] active beings who take for granted IM, iPods, and the
] Internet. "The educational community has embraced the use
] of computers as teaching tools, yet many institutions
] will simply install 'what everyone else is using' without
] questioning how technology can best be used to enhance
] education," says Dr. Allison Druin, (University of
] Maryland) panelist at CHI 2005.

This looks like an interesting conference
