This is a wonderful example of a way to make learning meaningful and relevant for learners!

When students curate, they own the learning. This is my latest blog post with some of the highlights from a recent collaborative student curation project I supported in my district.

Kuratointi liitettynä esim. blogiin syventää opiskelua ja kehittää tiedonhallintaa ja sisältöjen suodattamista.

My latest blog post describes an 8th grade student curation project. Through curating, students experienced the freedom to learn about what most interested them, and to follow their questions in the direction that they needed to go, as they explored topics of the 19th century social reform movements in their social studies class. |
Adopting a Maker Movement in your school has got to be one of the strategies to integrate STEM into the culture of the school.
"A more direct way to support the Maker Movement in education is to establish hackerspaces affiliated with schools that can be accessed by students either during school as part of classes or after school. During school access would require flexibility on the part of teachers – but this also lends itself to a more traditional, structured curricular approach. Students can be provided with the tools and given general guidance, but also be allowed to explore within those parameters"
I believe school libraries are the best place to build hackerspaces in schools. This describes the 21st century library perfectly, "In a hackerspace the idea is to play, experiment, explore, pursue interests, and see where these things take you."
