Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classic and innovative hands-on projects for kids ages 3 and up designed to teach both heritage skills and how to think creatively. Handcraft is part of human nature: we build, we create, we innovate. The 20+ projects in this book from an experienced art educator weave a story of human innovation and creativity, from the very beginnings of building shelters in the woods to tinkering with recycled materials. Heritage skills teach children how to be independent and capable makers; fiber and wood projects offer rewarding crafts that also teach planning, preparation, and safe risk taking; and tinkering activities connect the low-tech process of making and doing with innovation. From soap carving and knot tying to building toy cars and junk robots, this book brings the fun of making things with your hands to young kids and links skills of the past with the present. The book also explores how to set up a maker space and teaches foundational workshop practices that can easily be applied to the home studio. Each project offers extensions for different ages and abilities and provides guiding questions to enrich the experience for both the maker (teacher/parent) and the apprentice (child) to encourage and celebrate creative, practical play.

Join 150+ makers as they share the stories behind their beautiful and bold work—then do some tinkering yourself!

Each artist featured in The Art of Tinkering shares their process and the backstory behind their work. Whether it’s dicussing their favorite tools (who knew toenail clippers could be so handy?) or offering a glimpse of their workspaces (you’d be amazed how many electronics tools you can pack into a pantry!), the stories, lessons, and tips in The Art of Tinkering offer a fascinating portrait of today’s maker scene. Artists include: Scott Weaver, Arthur Ganson, Moxie, Tim Hunkin, AnnMarie Thomas, Ranjit Bhatnajar and Jie Qi.

The specific topics covered in this conference include the application of artificial intelligence in education, learning management systems, collaborative learning, e-learning methodologies, intellectual property rights, and patents. The aim of the conference is to bring together various professionals from the scientific community to foster connections between science, technology, and industry, and provide a platform for exploring fundamental issues and new applications in related fields. We hope that the scientific attitudes and skills developed through research will encourage scholars worldwide to contribute to the development of knowledge generated by research. Finally, we would like to express our gratitude to the conference chair, publication chairs, technical program committee chairs, local organizing chairs, program committee chairs, conference secretariat, and conference sponsors for their financial support, which made the successful organization of ICEKIM 2023 possible. We hope that this conference will continue to be held in the coming years, publishing more insightful articles with inspiring research. We would also like to thank the invited speakers for their valuable contributions and for sharing their perspectives during their speeches.
