19. Quest to Learn : Imagination: Creating the Future of Education & Work 19. Quest to Learn Video: Katie Salen discusses Quest 2 Learn in a six part series on Big Think. Katie Salen recognizes that play is a profound part of the human experience. Salen is a game designer, interactive designer, animator, and design educator. She is the co-author of “Rules of Play: Game Design Fundamentals,” a textbook on game design, as well as the “Game Design Reader.” On April 6, 2010, the Village Voice reported on Quest to Learn in “Game Theory: A city school explores the educational power of playing and designing games.” In the class “Sports for the Mind,” students build their own video games using a program called Gamestar Mechanic that was designed by Salen. “Sports for the Mind” teacher Al Doyle says his class helps students learn “systems thinking,” to understand the relationship of parts to wholes. Critic Diane Ravitch, an education historian and NYU professor, was cited in the article.

Clean Up Your Mess - A Guide to Visual Design for Everyone Kickstarter's Ultimate Success Story: Nano Wristbands Raise $1 Million | Co.Design It's the ultimate Kickstarter success story. Unable to secure a manufacturer, the Chicago-based designer Scott Wilson placed his TikTok and LunaTik wristbands -- which convert the Nano into a watch -- on the funding site. Within a month, he raised nearly $1 million from 13,500 backers -- a Kickstarter record. All of a sudden, retailers came calling, including the most prestigious of all: Apple, which is rolling out the wristbands in North American stores this week. "A lot of people just don't have the instincts to know whether it's going to sell, so they just don't want to gamble," Wilson says. 76% of Wilson's backers bought the Nano because of the watchband. The Kickstarter experiment proved them all wrong: Twice as many $79.95 LunaTiks, the bands with the premium aluminum case, were sold than the plastic $39.95 TikToks. As did another intriguing piece of data: In a survey sent to his backers, the designer asked, How many of you bought the Nano because of the watchband?

Talking Composition Autodesk Releases Free App That Brings 3-D Printing To The Masses [Video] | Co.Design If you hear "maker culture" and instantly think of grease-stained weirdos who drone on about steampunk and "screws not glue"... well, you wouldn't be wrong. But when a giant software company like Autodesk throws its weight behind "makers," you know it's much more than a subculture. "There was this huge digital content generation that emerged, but now that 'Generation C' is turning into 'M,' the Make generation," Tatjana Dzambazova, Senior Product Manager at Autodesk, tells Co.Design. 123D lets you easily fabricate objects, not just visualize them. 123D differs from other free 3-D modeling software like Google Sketchup in that it's designed to let you easily fabricate objects, not just visualize them. Because 123D has physical output in mind, it includes ingenious features like a "shell" command that turns any solid digital model hollow, which makes it much faster and cheaper print. Autodesk intends 123D to be simple enough to play with like a toy. [Download 123D for free here]
