The developers of Logo and similar computational environments have played a special role in fostering constructionist ways of teaching and learning over the past twenty-five years. They have encouraged learners to better understand the world and their place in it by building their own meaning-making models based on iterative, interactive exploration and testing of ideas and notions. Their success has opened the way to others whose research and practices have led them to also question the fundamental processes of creativity, thinking and education.

Constructionism 2010 will showcase major constructionist contributions to these processes with examples drawn from many disciplines and kinds of experience. It will examine specific lessons that teachers at all levels, researchers, and developers can use in their own personal and professional lives.

In the spirit of constructionism, the conference will mix hands-on workshops along with plenary sessions, streamed presentations and – we hope – lively panel discussions.

Suggestions for topics, sessions and organizers are welcome.
