LEAD
LEAD, Leading through Engineering, Art and Design, is a 5-month collaborative educational project of MIT Media Lab, The Chinese University and The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups. Some of us went to the opening presentation of the culmination last weekend at Cyberport. The only thing I have jotted down on my note-pad is the reflection of some 12-year-old participating students about their experience of creating:
1. Start simple2. Works on things you like
3. If you have no clue what to do, fiddle around
4. Don't be afraid to experiment
5. Find a friend to work with, share ideas
6. It's OK to copy stuff (to give you an idea)
7. Keep you ideas in a sketch book
8. Build, take apart and rebuild
9. Lots of things can go wrong, stick to it.
A partner called CAMP, Children's Art Museum & Park in Japan, has launched some successful creative education projects too.
