Re: "Ideas on how to teach children, e.g. 10 or 14 year olds,..."
@stack I fully agree with that. For me, it's more of an offer. The games have their good and also their bad and are part of it for us. I haven't found the offer I'm looking for yet, but there are some exciting things here. Depending on their age, children can also focus differently and stick to one thing differently. Just look for an offer that, in the best case, takes their interest. I'm looking forward to more ideas :)

Personally, I'd say you shouldn't give a kid access to too many devices until it's time to work (rather than amuse). Then, start with the command line and basic (or BASIC? lol ) programming. After that, build a robot/drone and a gemini server/capsule. Daruma's ideas above seem like a good outline. I might try that...
Ideas on how to teach children, e.g. 10 or 14 year olds, about computers, hardware and software. A project instead of playing Minecraft and Brawl Stars. More designing instead of consuming. I haven't really found anything yet, maybe you have an idea.
