Conrad Wolfram spoke about math education at the 2010 Wolfram Technology Conference:
Now, a new initiative has been recently announced at computerbasedmath.org to build a completely new math curriculum with computer-based computation at its heart.
Also see Conrad's Wolfram blog here where he announces that Estonia will be the first country that will completely rewrite their mathematics school curriculum.

Graphica - Scene Graph Language
Like everyone else, I suppose, I have a need to express my creativity. To facilitate this I am coding a small programming language to create graphical art. Although, for me, Mathematica is -the- language to do that I want to have a language that kids of age 8 to 88 ( TinTin or Donald Duck readers ) could learn. By using it geometric transformations like rotations and translations are learned in a natural way.
The graphic like the one below, including the rotation, is an example what the language could create with a few lines, a Mathematica Kernel is required but will run in the background only.
To be continued.

(Raumpatrouille – Die phantastischen Abenteuer des Raumschiffes Orion, colloquially aka Raumpatrouille Orion was the first German science fiction television series. Its seven episodes were broadcast by ARD beginning September 17, 1966. The series has since acquired cult status in Germany. Broadcast six years before Star Trek first aired in West Germany (in 1972), it became a huge success.)
