Empowerment is a key goal of maker-centered learning — helping young people feel that they can build and shape their worlds. That sense of “maker empowerment” arises when students learn to notice and engage with their physical and conceptual environments, the report states. To encourage that heightened sensitivity, educators should provide opportunities for students to:
look closely and reflect on the design of objects and systems;
explore the complexity of design;
and understand themselves as designers of their worlds.
