"Ten years ago, building something as
simple as a networked thermometer
required some understanding of electrical
engineering. Now it’s a Saturday-afternoon
project for a beginner.”
Jon Bruner, O’Reilly Radar Dec 10, 2014
21st Century Notebooking(re)imagining literacy and hands-on learning
21st Century Notebooking combines electronics with journals
and sketchbooks, turning the traditional notebook into a tool
for prototyping.
It’s based on the techniques and affordances of paper circuitry
and offers a low-cost platform for exploring technical and
expressive expertise, systems thinking, and trouble-shooting.
21st Century Notebooking is especially useful for introducing a
tinkering mindset and the fundamentals of electronics hand-in-
hand with the interdisciplinary literacies and design principles
connected with STEM, STEAM, and production-centered
learning.

Inside Out and CV2 are working with Circuit Stickers from
Chibitronics.com (“solder-free, peel and stick electronic
modules for crafting circuits,” developed by Jie Qi, a MIT
Media Lab doctoral candidate and her manufacturing
partner, Andrew “Bunnie” Huang) and low-cost hardware,
such as the ATtiny85 microcontroller andAdafruit’s Trinket,
to explore embedded electronics and introductory
fabrication as a framework for personalized learning and
production. CLICK TO VIEW CIRCUIT STICKERS ON CHIBITRONICS.COM

The “Hack Your Notebook” series is used in workshops,
conferences, and public presentations with educators
exploring instructional practices and pedagogies which
support introductory electronics and the intersection of art
and science in the classroom and out-of-school learning
programs.
Participants complete a project in their notebooks,
experiencing the process and steps learners go through when
working with electronics-as-material in an open-ended design
prompt or challenge.
• Develop open-source experimental kits
• small number of exemplary projects that provide materials and guidance
• allow for individual creative freedom and diverse talents to be exploited in the design and construction of authentic problem-based projects
• Develop projects whose performance results in organic, objective, authentic assessment of a student’s technical competence and teamwork skills.
