This document describes a new household sport called Booket that is inspired by cricket. It can be played by 2 players and uses common items like a book and cutlery. To play, the batsman opens a book 5 times using a spoon, knife, or fork provided by the bowler. If an even page number ending in 2, 4, or 6 is revealed, runs are scored, but an ending of 0 or 8 means the batsman is out. The player batting second tries to chase the score of the first player, and the highest total score wins.

Mission Possible Day 2.ping.pong2014
This document provides instructions for a group activity where students will work together to design and build a device to deposit a ping pong ball into a cup from 6 feet away. The supplies provided are basic materials like paper, straws, string and tape. Students are instructed to sketch designs, evaluate ideas, listen to group members, and decide on a final "beta test" tool. They will test their device and observe materials. The goal is for students to work through the engineering design process and be evaluated on teamwork, creativity, effort and having a successful solution.
Stanford, Design Thinking, Testing
The document discusses two potential solutions for helping architecture students learn about the real world professional experience: 1) Running a one-year simulation within the online virtual world SecondLife and 2) An "Adopt your Pregraduate" program where professionals mentor students. For the SecondLife simulation, interacting and getting feedback was difficult. For the mentoring program, the meetings between a student and mentor were very helpful and insightful for both parties. The document recommends structuring the mentoring conversations and helping students find jobs through the mentor's contacts.
NYC Middle School Process
The document provides an overview of the middle school choice process in New York City. It discusses the timeline students and families should follow, including attending school fairs in October, requesting testing in October, applying to schools in November, and interviews/testing in January-February. Decision letters are distributed in May-June. It also outlines the different types of middle school choices like zoned, district, borough-wide, and citywide schools. The process of researching schools, ranking choices, and applying is also summarized.
Higher Order Thinking in Math and Writing
The document discusses developing higher-order thinking skills in students for math and writing. It suggests that traditional math problems lack realism and are not framed by students. For math, teachers should see problems from the students' perspective, let students struggle productively, and encourage talk and collaboration. For writing, it recommends focusing on audience and purpose, co-constructing criteria, spending time on prewriting, and assessing at all stages of the writing process. The goal is to help students justify choices, make judgments, and express themselves effectively.

Design thinking is a structure or methodology for creating new products that involves empathizing with users, defining problems, brainstorming solutions, prototyping ideas, testing prototypes, and redefining solutions based on feedback. The process includes drawing personas in the center of empathy and problem statements. One idea to apply design thinking is a "Startup University" program that would train entrepreneurs using concepts like pretotyping, customer validation, and mentoring.

“What is called ‘making’ in North America and Europe,” he said, “is, frankly, a luxurious pastime of wealthy people... all over what is called the Global South there are makers everywhere, only they are not called makers. There are fab labs everywhere, only they are not called fab labs.”
— Chris Csikszentmihályi, director MIT Centre for Future Civic Media
What’s happening here? And how can we fix this? This presentation is a call for new perspectives on making that are critical, hands-on and research-based – helping us think both *through* and *with* objects to bring about fundamental + sustainable lifestyle alternatives. It looks at different theoretical approaches to machine materiality, from hacking to social science and "jugaad" to psychogeography, and from Actor Network Theory and Material Semiotics, to Situationism and Relational Aesthetics, to Critical Making and Critical Design.
It also asks two big questions that have been nagging at me from my own experiences with community making + fabrication.
First, how can we better correlate the making of objects with critical reflection about their effects?
Second, how can we engage in sustainable making (both environmental and social) without producing material excesses or disempowering lesser-served communities?

The Power of Hierarchical Thinking - Ray Kurzweil - H+ Summit @ Harvard
Ray Kurzweil
The Power of Hierarchical Thinking
What does it mean to understand the brain? Where are we on the roadmap to this goal? What are the effective routes to progress - detailed modeling, theoretical effort, improvement of imaging and computational technologies? What predictions can we make? What are the consequences of materialization of such predictions - social, ethical? Kurzweil will address these questions and examine some of the most common criticisms of the exponential growth of information technology including criticisms from hardware ("Moore's Law will not go on forever"), software ("software is stuck in the mud"), the brain ("the brain is too complicated to understand or replicate"), ontology ("software is not capable of thinking or of consciousness"), and promise versus peril ("biotechnology, nanotechnology, and artificial intelligence are too dangerous").
There is now a grand project comprising at least a hundred thousand scientists and engineers working in diverse ways to understand the best example we have of an intelligent process: the human brain. It is arguably the most important project in the history of the human-machine civilization. The goal of the project is to understand precisely how the human brain works, and then to use these revealed algorithms as a basis for creating even more intelligent machines.
As we learn the algorithms underlying human intelligence, we will similarly be able to engineer it to vastly extend the powers of our intelligence. Indeed this process is already well under way. There are literally hundreds of tasks and activities that used to be the sole province of human intelligence that can now be conducted by computers usually with greater precision and vastly greater scale.
Was it inevitable that a species would evolve that is capable of creating its own evolutionary process in the form of intelligent technology? Kurzweil will argue that it was.
According to my models we are only two decades from fully modeling and simulating the human brain. By the time we finish this reverse-engineering project, we will have computers that are millions of times more powerful than the human brain. These computers will be further amplified by being networked into a vast world wide cloud of computing. The algorithms of intelligence will begin to self-iterate towards ever smarter algorithms.
This is how we will address the grand challenges of humanity such as maintaining a healthy environment, providing for the resources for a growing population including energy, food, and water, overcoming disease, vastly extending human longevity, and overcoming poverty. It is only by extending our intelligence with our intelligent technology that we can handle the scale of complexity to address these challenges.
Ray Kurzweil has been described as "the restless genius" by the Wall Street Journal, and "the ultimate thinking machine" by Forbes. Inc. magazine ranked him #8 among entrepreneurs in the United States, calling him the "rightful heir to Thomas Edison", and PBS included Ray as one of 16 "revolutionaries who made America", along with other inventors of the past two centuries.
As one of the leading inventors of our time, Ray was the principal developer of the first CCD flat-bed scanner, the first omni-font optical character recognition, the first print-to-speech reading machine for the blind, the first text-to-speech synthesizer, the first music synthesizer capable of recreating the grand piano and other orchestral instruments, and the first commercially marketed large-vocabulary speech recognition. Ray's web site Kurzweil AI.net has over one million readers.
Among Ray's many honors, he is the recipient of the $500,000 MIT-Lemelson Prize, the world's largest for innovation. In 1999, he received the National Medal of Technology, the nation's highest honor in technology, from President Clinton in a White House ceremony.

The document summarizes interviews with 5 students searching for jobs after graduation. The students reported that finding a job is difficult due to few available jobs, high competition, and pressure to earn a living. Starting a business carries high risks due to lack of capital, training, and investors. There is a need for a central job database with flexible search filters to better match employers and candidates, as well as industry events to connect students and employers.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
