TINKER ÿ ÿ
description
A few months back I heard the most inspiring conversation about collaboration and working together and ... tinkering. If you can, have a listen http://www.abc.net.au/rn/bydesign/stories/2011/3147776.htm Also, note that I'm making a brand new powerpoint and I have zero images for it. I'd like to consider this something that parallels the podcast. Suggestions are most welcome. That said, it makes the most sense if you've heard the audio! I'll be making a number of updates. Suggestions are most welcome. More about tinkering on the Planeta Wiki http://planeta.wikispaces.com/tinker

The Power of Tinkering www.abc.net.au/rn/bydesign

Our skills have a 5-Year Half-Life
At any age we have to be ready to pick up
brand new skills
Back to the Future
What’s Old is New Again
The One Room Schoolhouse allows us to learn with and
from each other
The teacher becomes the orchestrator
Students teach each other
20th century model suited the industrial
age, a more linear age
Today’s world is not linear.
Today’s world is highly unpredictable
Our identity involves participating in a networked public
Kids learn from each other … Why can’t we create a global version of that?
How do we make the networked world
share the attributes of the one-room
schoolhouse?
Today we create our identity by what we create, share what
other people build on
I am what I make and other people
can build on
Listen with humility
Interpret the backtalk
of the situation
Argue productively with each other
Give generous critiques
Hold multiple points of view
Like a MC Escher painting, we are
standing on each other’s shoulders.
