Integrated Skills Practicing
I. Viewing & Listening
1. When I was very young, I was in love with animation. But I found myself flowing more into sculpture, because I realized from my own temperament, the effort and time involved to make the thing actually move was about the same as the effort and time involved to make an animation.
2. The stuff is all garbage. If it isn’t sorted in a way that makes sense to me, then I’m just warehousing garbage. If things have their place and I know where they are, then this is a stock pile of valuable material. These things are treasures to me, but not if I can’t access them and remember where they are.
3. I found myself in an interesting sort of gap between the maker movement and the art world. The majority of people are excited about it. But they want to know what’s it for. If you have to ask what’s art for, then chances are you will never need art in your home.

There are many benefits of/to bringing the maker movement into the classroom. First and foremost it calls for students to turn from being passive users into active 9
discoverers by stimulating their imagination and creativity. It also allows students to work on “real life” problems in a math or science classroom. This helps students realize the practical aspects of education and can transform their motivation. Moreover, students can learn how to interact with each other effectively, generating a sense of engagement and mutual acceptance. Added to all this, the completion of each project boosts the confidence of students in their capacity to build something useful. In short, the maker movement injects creativity, encouragement, the spirit of teamwork and a sense of achievement into the classroom, opening up a vast and exciting new frontier in the world of education.
