Basic Civil Engineering notes on Transportation Engineering & Modes of Transport
Somerson_SXSW Proposal
1. SXSW
This
talk
critiques
the
maker
movement
and
explores
what
relevant
components
result
when
integrating
“making”
into
educational
models.
Is
the
movement
a
trend,
or
does
it
derive
from
essential
human
capacities
that
enliven
learning,
instigate
innovation,
and
champion
new
models
of
research?
What
criteria
differentiate
rigorous
cognitive
and
expressive
learning
through
making?
What
is
superfluous
or
even
superficial?
Reflecting
on
decades
educating
designers
and
artists
who
learn
through
materials
and
making,
what
theory
of
contemporary
making
can
drive
innovation
and
expansive
learning?
