The Hacker Way is an approach to
building that involves continuous
improvement and iteration. Hackers
believe that something can always be
better, and that nothing is ever
complete. They just have to go fix it
— often in the face of people who say
it’s impossible or are content with the
status quo.

The reading experience, the relationship between
author and reader, and the book itself are evolving.
And this shift means that many young people are
embracing books and reading as never before.

144. And we need to think of our powers to
imaginatively connect our learners with others.
Libraries can easily connect with other libraries
and classrooms.
Our book clubs, art classes, debate teams can
meet with others around the world.
Authors and experts have never been more
accessible.
All it takes is librarian (or some kids) with a little
social capital and a little inventiveness to make it
happen.

179. Jenkins on participatory culture:
1. relatively low barriers to artistic expression and civic
engagement
2. strong support for creating and sharing what you create
with others
3. informal mentorship whereby what is known by the most
experienced gets passed along to newbies and novices
4. members feel that their contributions matter
5. members feel some degree of social connection with
each other. Not every member needs to contribute but
all need to feel that they are free to contribute when they
are ready and that what they contribute will be
appropriately valued if they do.

IDEO’s design process, recording as a multidisciplinary team brainstormed, research, prototyped, and gathered user feedback on a design
that went from idea to a working appearance model in four days.
The nestable steel frame lacks sides and a bottom to deter theft, and holds removable plastic baskets to increase shopper flexibility, help
protect goods and provide a method to promote brand awareness. A dual child seat uses a swing-up tray for a play surface, and a hole
provides a secure spot for a cup of coffee or a bunch of carnations.

243. Fast trend: Shift to deeper learning approaches:
Project-based learning, problem-based learning, inquiry-based learning, challenge-based learning,
and similar methods foster more active learning experiences, both inside and outside the
classroom. As technologies such as tablets and smartphones are more readily accepted in schools,
educators are leveraging these tools, which students already use, to connect the curriculum with real
life applications. These active learning approaches are decidedly more student-centered, allowing
learners to take control of how they engage with a subject and to brainstorm and implement
solutions to pressing local and global problems.
