What does learning look likein an open hardware community?

Thursday, 10 February 2011

Page 3: Standing on the Shoulders of Hackers

many things to learn

Arduino as a Toolhow do I use Arduino?how do I improve my skills in interactive hardware design?how do i transfer these skills to electronics, engineering, software development, etc.?

Arduino as an Open Source Projecthow do I understand the Arduino schematics?

how do I design hardware compatible with Arduino?how do I make a different/better Arduino?

how do I understand the Arduino code base?how do I contribute to the Arduino source code?

bottom-up pedagogy

many points of entry and many ways to learnteaching may be accidental or incidentalblurred boundaries between learning, doing, and teaching

high engagement and enthusiasm for subjectoften hands-on emphasisprocess of learning and teaching as an enjoyable activity

relationships important

uneven pedagogypossibly low follow-through

hardware vs. software?

teaching tools are less effective without physical objects/demonstration: not as scalable or distributed.

hardware vs. software?

inherently multidisciplinary. needs for skills in hardware, software, and design can serve as a leveller.

hardware vs. software?

digital curricula and tools to address physical needs.

hardware vs. software?

greater emphasis on personal, offline interactions.

multiple points of entry: address different learners at different levelsdifficult to figure out where to start

self-driven learning and teaching: high engagement and enthusiasmuneven effectiveness, rigor, follow-through

relationships are key:essential to sustain communities of learningcan be difficult to engage new communities

simultaneous strengths and limitations
