The papert.org 'Constructionism vs. Instructionism' transcript does not contain the 'child programs the computer' line the vault had cited it for

claim-papert-constructionism-inverts-instructionism cited papert.org/articles/const_inst/const_inst1.html as the Tier-1 carrier of "In my vision, the child programs the computer." A direct read of that page, and of its companion const_inst2.html ("LEGO/LEGO Projects"), found the exact phrase absent from both — a quote_check against each returned grounded: false. The papert.org pages are a transcript of a video address Seymour Papert gave "in the 1980s" to a conference of Japanese educators, discussing a fourth-grade child's calendar project and a Costa Rican child's LOGO drawing. They use the related but distinct phrase "the child programmed the computer," past tense, in that narrow anecdotal sense — not the forward-looking "In my vision" formulation.

The sentence itself is real and accurately worded; the error was in which Papert document carries it. Its documented home is Mindstorms: Children, Computers, and Powerful Ideas (1980), Introduction, "Computers for Children" — see claim-papert-mindstorms-child-programs-computer-quote-verified for the verbatim confirmation. claim-papert-constructionism-inverts-instructionism's source_url has been corrected accordingly, with a dated Correction-history block recording the change.
