| We see the mentor community as the intersection of:
| |
| | |
| * '''Makers interested in learning'''
| |
| * '''Educators interested in making'''
| |
| | |
| For example:
| |
| | |
| * A hackerspace founder interested in running HTML courses
| |
| * A museum director interested in a digital making program
| |
| | |
| These two groups, makers and educators, are situated in two larger movements:
| |
| | |
| * the '''"Maker Movement"''': with a DIY ethos and an "If you can't open it, you don't own it" approach. A strong culture of documentation and sharing, collaboration and remixing. Has roots in physical spaces and physical objects, but important ties to the web. Examples include: Maker Faire, hackerspaces, tinkerers in electronics, 3D printing, CNC and more.
| |
| * the '''"Learning Movement"''': challenges traditional education with its learner-centric, web-inspired approach to learning. A strong culture of peer learning, open course materials, and new kinds of assessment. Has roots in peer production, participation, networks of institutions & learners. Examples include: Massive Open Online Courses, YOUMedia spaces, instructors from computer clubs and more.
