Mitch Resnick BiographyMitchel Resnick, LEGO Papert Professor of Learning Research and head of the Lifelong Kindergarten group at the MIT Media Lab, explores how new technologies can engage people in creative learning experiences.
Resnick's research group developed the "programmable brick" technology that inspired the LEGO Mindstorms robotics kit.
He co-founded the Computer Clubhouse project, a worldwide network of after-school centers where youth from low-income communities learn to express themselves creatively with new technologies.

He worked as a science-technology journalist from 1978 to 1983, and he has consulted throughout the world on creative uses of computers in education.

In 2011, Resnick was awarded the McGraw Prize in Education.
