About Makedo Toolkit Sett ta' Għodda għall-Kostruzzjoni bil-Kartun

Makedo Toolkit huwa sett ta' għodod li jista' jerġa' jintuża għall-kostruzzjoni kreattiva bil-kartun. Is-sett fih Safe-saw, Scrudriver, wieħed u għoxrin konnettur Scru u seba' konnetturi Scru XL f'borża li tista' terġa' tingħalaq. B'dawn it-tliet tipi ta' għodod, tfal mill-età ta' erba' snin jistgħu jaqtgħu l-kartun, itaqqbu toqob u jgħaqqdu s-saffi b'mod sikur. L-imqass, ix-xfafar u t-tejp joħolqu limiti ta' sigurtà u funzjoni għall-kreaturi żgħażagħ, għalhekk is-sett ġie żviluppat biex ineħħi dawn il-limiti. Kartun misjub jista' jinbena f'oġġetti ta' kwalunkwe daqs, waħedhom jew fi gruppi, fi klassijiet, spazji tal-kreaturi, mużewijiet u djar.

Design Challenge: Using cardboard as a making material for creative projects is not a new idea. There are however inherent limitations with the use of standard ubiquitous tools such as scissors, blades and tape to craft cardboard. They pose safety risks to the maker and functional limitations on the making itself but more importantly they set limitations on what can be achieved by young makers independent of adult intervention. The focus for this project was therefore in developing tools to empower young makers to work with cardboard safely and intuitively to manifest their ideas from minds eye to 'I made it'.
Inspiration: The story behind Makedo is the tale of a designer working from home and having his day punctuated by his children requesting 'props' for their imaginative play. A shield here, a helmet there, possibly a turreted castle with working drawbridge! The desire to support his children to manifest their wild imaginations in the real world (and get some work done!) precipitated a light bulb moment for Paul Justin and Makedo was born. Makedo now empowers kids the world over to create a hackable world of their own making.

Makedo aligns with global shifts in education wherein creativity, critical thinking, communication and collaboration are integral to learning. Makedo fosters the natural inclination of the child to learn by making and doing.
Operation Flow: Find some cardboard, grab some Makedo tools and get started. The awesomeness of Makedo is that children learn by doing, creating, experimenting, failing and maybe succeeding but that's not essential. The creations then open the door to imaginative play where the child is protagonist in a hack-able world of their own making. Makedo comes to life in collaborative creative environments such as classrooms, maker spaces, museums and of course homes.
