derived.You may choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraph ismarked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on AnswerSheet 2.Make Stuff,Fail,And Learn While You're At ItA.We've always been a hands-on,do-it-yourself kind of nation.Ben Franklin,one ofAmerica's founding fathers,didn't just invent the lightning rod.His creations include glasses,innovative stoves and more.B.Franklin,who was largely self-taught,may have been a genius,but he wasn't really anexception when it comes to American making and creativity.C.The personal computing revolution and philosophy of disruptive innovation of SiliconValley grew,in part,out of the creations of the Homebrew Computer Club,Which was founded ina garage in Menlo Park,Califomia,in the mid-1970s.Members-including guys named Jobs andWozniak-started making and inventing things they couldn't buy.D.So it's no surprise that the Maker Movement today is thriving in communities and someschools across America.Making is available to ordinary people who aren't tied to big companies,big defense labs or research universities.The maker philosophy echoes old ideas advocated byJohn Dewey,Montessori,and even ancient Greek philosophers,as we pointed out recently.E.These maker spaces are often outside of classrooms,and are serving an importanteducational function.The Maker Movement is rediscovering leaming by doing,which is Dewey'sphrase from 100 years ago.We are rediscovering Dewey and Montessori and a lot of the practicesthat they pioneered that have been forgotten or at least put aside.A maker space is a place whichcan be in a school,but it doesn't look like a classroom.It can be in a library.It can be out in thecommunity.It has tools and materials.It's a place where you get to make things based on yourinterest and on what you're learning to do.F.Ideas about leaming by doing have struggled to become mainstream educationally,despitebeing old concepts from Dewey and Montessori,Plato and Aristotle,and in the American Contcxt,Ralph Emerson,on the value of experience and self-reliance.It's not necessarily an efficient wayto leam.We learn,in a sense,by trial and error.Learning from experience is something that takestime and patience.It's very individualized.If your goal is to have standardized approaches toleaming,where everybody leams the same thing at the same time in the same way,then learningby doing doesn't really fit that mold anymore.It's not the world of textbooks.It's not the world oftesting.G.Leaming by doing may not be efficient,but it is effective.Project-based learning hasgrown in popularity with teachers and administrators.However,project-based learning is notmaking.Although there is a connection,there is also a distinction.The difference lies in whetherthe project is in a sense defined and developed by the student or whether it's assigned by a teacher.We'll all get the kids to build a small boat.We are all going to leam about X,Y,and Z.That tendsto be one form of project-based learning.H.I really believe the core idea of making is to have an idea within your head-or you justborrow it from someone-and begin to develop it,repeat it and improve it.Then,realize that2idea somehow.That thing that you make is valuable to you and you can share it with others.I'minterested in how these things are expressions of that person,their ideas,and their interactionswith the world.L.In some ways,a lot of forms of making in school trivialize(使变得无足轻重)making.Thething that you make has no value to you.Once you are done demonstrating whatever concept wasin the textbook,you throw away the pipe cleaners,the cardboard tubes.J.Making should be student-directed and student-led,otherwise it's boring.It doesn't havethe motivation of the student.I'm not saying that students should not learn concepts or not learnskills.They do.But to really harness their motivation is to build upon their interest.It's to let thembe in control and to drive the car.K.Teachers should aim to build a supportive,creative environment for students to do thiswork.A very social environment,where they are learning from each other.When they have aproblem,it isn't the teacher necessarily coming in to solve it.They are responsible for workingthrough that problem.It might be they have to talk to other students in the class to help get ananswer.L.The teacher's role is more of a coach or observer.Sometimes,to people,it sounds like thisis a diminished rote for teachers.I think it's a heightened role.You're ereating this environment,like a maker space.You have 20 kids doing different things.You are watching them and really it'sthe human behaviors you're looking at.Are they engaged?A they developing and repeating theirproject?Are they stumbling ()Do they need something that they don't have?Can you helpthem be aware of where they are?M.My belief is that the goal of making is not to get every kid to be hands-on,but it enable usto be good learners.It's not the knowledge that is valuable,It's the practice of learning new thingsand understanding how things work.These are processes that you are developing so that you areable,over time,to tackle more interesting problems,more challenging problems-problems thatrequire many people instead of one person,and many skills instead of one.N.If teachers keep it form-free and student-led,it can still be tied to a curriculum and aneducational plan.I think a maker space is more like a like a library in that there are multiplesubjects and multiple things that you can learn.What seems to be missing in school is how thesesubjects integrate,how they fit together in any meaningful way.Rather than saying,'This isscience,over here is history,'I see schools taking this idea of projects and looking at:How do theysupport children in higher level leaming?O.I feel like this is a shift away form a subject matter-based curriculum to a moreexperiential curriculum or learning.It's still in its early stages,but I think it's shifting around notwhat kids learn but how they learn.36.A maker space is where people make things according to their personal interests.37.The teachers'role is enhanced in a maker space as they have to monitor and facilitateduring the process.38.Coming up with an idea of one's own or improving one from others is key to the conceptof making.39.Contrary to structured learning,learning by doing is highly individualized.40.America is a nation known for the idea of making things by oneself.41.Making will be boring unless students are able to take charge.
