Moral of the Story
“Better” matters little if what people need and want is something else.

happens in our classrooms.

The Maker Movement
Tuesday, June 25, 13
“We are at a turning point in human history–a rising tide of a culture of participation in global networks that open doors of which we humans have never dreamed. We must remember, “making” at its core, is about “teaching” kids to view the world (not just school) in a completely different way. It’s about empowerment and ownership of destiny. The ability to wonder and dream is great but realizing that one can “make something happen” is a very powerful thing.”

“Tinkering is a powerful form of learning and doing, an ethos shared by the rapidly expanding maker community and many educators. It celebrates the best of what it means to be human. One of the most endearing things about the maker movement is how many children are celebrated as heroes, leaders, and innovaters.”
