15. Making
ā¢ Turning ideas into tangible/perceivable form
ā¢ Materials, Tools, Processes
ā¢ Not merely about production and fabrication, but also involves self-learning,
problem-solving, exploration, experimentation and critical thinking
ā¢ Learn, create, share
ā¢ Do-it-yourself (DIY) with others
ā¢ Not just in local communities in old days, but through Internet to collaborate with people
around the world
ā¢ Do-it-yourself (DIY) with technology
ā¢ Not just with hand tools, but with digitally-enabled tools
20. Maker Movement
ā¢ Growing culture of hands-on making, creating, designing and
innovating
ā¢ Despite its diversity [in makersā interests], the movement is unified by
a shared commitment to open exploration, intrinsic interests and
creative ideas
ā¢ When I talk about the maker movement, I make an effort to stay
away from the word āinventorā ā most people just donāt identify
themselves that way. āMakerā, on the other hand, describes each
one of us no matter how we live our lives, or what our goals might
be.

24. Meaning in Making
ā¢ āMakingā should be based on intrinsic interests
ā¢ How to make it meaningful to students when making?
ā¢ How to develop their abilities to āempathizeā?
ā¢ More meaningful if making is associated with people, not just making for the sake of making
ā¢ Four Levels of Making:
ā¢ Making for self
ā¢ Fun, self-use, solve your own problem, ā¦
ā¢ Making for someone you are familiar
ā¢ For your best friend, for your parents, ā¦
ā¢ Making for others
ā¢ For your classmates, for your neighbors, ā¦
ā¢ Making for social good
ā¢ For disadvantaged group, for local community, for sustainability, for change, ā¦.
25. STEM/STEAM
ā¢ Knowledge from Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and
Mathematics (STEAM) to support making
ā¢ Science ā e.g. understanding of properties of materials
ā¢ Technology ā e.g. availability of tools (hardware, software, ā¦) and processes
ā¢ Engineering ā e.g. programming, electronics, CAD
ā¢ Art ā e.g. aesthetics, form, shape, culture
ā¢ Mathematics ā e.g. simulations, algorithms
ā¢ āMakingā provides an engaging way for individual to learn and apply
STEAM knowledge
29. How To Be a Better Designer?
ā¢ Be curious, look around, play around, experience around
ā¢ Try something you havenāt done before
ā¢ Learn something you donāt know
ā¢ Understand how a product/service works
ā¢ Understand how other thinks about a product/service
ā¢ Play with different types of materials, tools and processes
ā¢ Make something, even if they may be stupid
ā¢ Document your failures and successes
ā¢ Understand why you failed
ā¢ Share your work and get feedbacks
ā¢ Work with others
ā¢ Read more!!! Learn science!!!
38. Supports Three Broad Stages of Makers
ā¢ Zero to Maker
ā¢ Arouse interest of those with no experience in making to become a maker
ā¢ In Maker Faire: Through hands-on activities, through workshops, through inspiring
talks, through inspiring works from other makers
ā¢ Maker to Maker
ā¢ Sharing of knowledge between makers
ā¢ Collaborate and access to othersā expertise
ā¢ Work together on shared platforms
ā¢ In Maker Faire: Through show-and-tell their projects, through offering hands-on
activities and organizing workshops, through interact with visitors and other makers
ā¢ Maker to Market
ā¢ Some creations of makers have commercial appeal and get into the market
ā¢ In Maker Faire: Through presenting their journey to other makers, through collecting
feedbacks from visitors on their creations
