Newspaper Clip Five Institutes To Host Children’s China Education Computer Demo Contest,,cec_demo_comp.png,archive,"Transcript in Chinese Auto-translation in English The Ministry of Machinery and Electronics, the Ministry of Health, the State Science and Technology Commission, the China Association for Science and Technology, and the All-China Women's Federation entrusted the China Learning Machine Popularization Association to hold the ""Children's Chinese Learning Machine Exhibition Competition"" in Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai and regions on the eve of ""June 1"". Since the mid-1980s, 110,000 Chinese Educational Computers have entered primary and secondary schools, families and some social groups. In the summer camps, winter camps and some activities held every year, various competitions of Chinese learning machines are indispensable. The age limit for participating in this exhibition competition is 3 to 8 years old. The content of the demo competition is based on educational software, and examines the keystroke method, boot sequence, input speed, etc. The judges will rate according to the age group. The performance time in Beijing is scheduled for May 27.","Institutional support and organization for the CEC computer models and computer literacy for children held before the International Children’s Day. Rubric based exam-like competition that cover computer skills that crucially deals with being capable with using text in the computer system: keyboard striking, input speed. The software the competition was using were referred to as “intellectually beneficial software”(????). Note the red ribbon attire worn by a participating child in the photograph. Certainly, there are performative and demonstrative aspects to the event. It is critically and culturally worth to explore the differences between CEC demo competitions, and its Western “counterparts”: live coding and demoscene. It is jawbreaking to draw such a comparison, as live coding and demoscene derive from much less bureaucratic contexts that lean towards artistry and creative expression. To begin with, I argue that based on my personal experience and archival research, the computer literacy project embodied in the lineage that CEC is in, had hinted the vibes of rigorosity and elitism (selection and problem solving agendas as opposed to exploration open to all and open minded: info olympiads, problem sets in magazines). There is a vital potential to subvert this particular version of history of computer literacy. "
