review 1: A great book that I very much enjoyed. I can understand a few of the 4 star reviews in terms of what it may offer the general reader, but it struck me in a way that I found enlightening. It made sense, provided ample proof, and was convincing to believe that our society is missing an important element of our education. Everyone has an inner need to make things themselves, to experiment, to craft one's own ideas into reality with their own hands. It builds creativity and teaches skills. And it is a good motivational learning experience.
review 2: I changed my mind - 5 stars. This isn't a review. It's notes for when I eventually get to talk to someone about this book. - Classroom management- Rubrics- Explicit teaching/making mini-lessons even tinier- Library
... more Maker Specialists- "There is no reason why student products cannot be both cute and good."- "Great teachers know that their highest calling is to make memories." less
