Walter Bender is a technologist and researcher who works in the field of electronic publishing, media and technology for learning. From the MIT Media Lab's founding 1985 through 2006, Bender directed the lab's Electronic Publishing Group. Previous to the lab's creation, the group had also existed in the Architecture Machine Group. The research group is one of the Media Lab's oldest and one of a few that predates the creation of the lab. While at the lab, Bender held the Alexander W. Dreyfoos Chair. Bender's research has attempted to build upon the interactive styles associated with existing media and extend them into domains where a computer is incorporated into the interaction. He has participated in research in the field of electronic publishing, and personalized, interactive multimedia,

  • Walter Bender (Boston, 1956) és un tecnòleg i investigador que ha fet importants contribucions en el camp de la publicació electrònica, dels mitjans de comunicació i de la tecnologia per a l'aprenentatge en programari lliure. Va obtenir un Bachelor d'Arts a la Universitat Harvard el 1977 i un Màster de Ciència al Massachusetts Institute of Technology el 1980. El 1978 va entrar a formar part de l'Architecture Machine Group, el precursor de l'Electronic Publishing Group del MIT Media Lab del Massachusetts Institute of Technology; grup del que seria cap durant més de vint anys. Del 2000 al 2006 va ser director executiu del MIT Media Lab. Bender va investigar els estils interactius associats als mitjans de comunicació existents i va assajar estendre'ls a dominis als quals s'incorporés un ordinador en la interacció. Va contribuir de manera important a millorar la publicació electrònica i particularment en la recerca de mètodes per personalitzar les notícies. Del 2006 al 2008 va demanar una excedència per dedicar-se a la iniciativa «Un Portàtil Per Nen» (en anglès One Laptop Per Child, també coneguda com a PC de 100 dòlars. En va ser el president i va contribuir en molts dels aspectes més innovadors de l'ordinador OLPC XO-1 i de la seva interfície gràfica d'usuari Sugar, basada en el programari lliure Linux. Va deixar la iniciativa OLPC el 2008, quan Microsoft, menys partidari del codi obert, va decidir participar en OLPC. Aleshores Bender va fundar Sugar Labs on continua desenvolupant programari educatiu de codi obert; com per exemple, Turtle Blocks, un llenguatge de programació molt senzill, creat per iniciar i sensibilitzar els nens per les possibilitats de la informàtica.

He has participated in research in the field of electronic publishing, and personalized, interactive multimedia, particularly including news. From 2000 through 2006, Bender was executive director of The Media Lab. In 2006, Bender took leave of absence from the Media Lab to help launch One Laptop per Child (OLPC) where he was the organization's President for Software and Content. In this role, Bender oversaw the design and development of the Sugar graphical interface for the XO-1 Children's Machine computer from 2006 to 2008. After leaving OLPC in 2008, Bender founded Sugar Labs — a non-profit organization that aims to continue development of Sugar. An expert in computers and learning and strongly influenced by constructionism, Bender is the lead developer of both Turtle Blocks and Music Blocks, Logo-inspired programming languages for children. Bender is an advocate for the use of Free Software for learning projects and works with like-minded educators and engineers around the world. Walter Bender earned a Bachelor of Arts degree from Harvard University in 1977 and a Master of Science degree in 1980 from MIT, where he worked in the Architecture Machine Group, a precursor to the MIT Media Lab.
