The key takeaways are that the Tinkering School teaches students important life skills through hands-on building projects, and that a new school called Brightworks was created based on similar principles.

The Tinkering School is a summer program started by Gever Tulley in 2005 where students learn skills through building things together, like a rollercoaster, rope bridge, tree houses, and boats. Students are given materials and tools to plan and make innovative projects.

Brightworks is a 'real' school created in 2011 in San Francisco by Gever Tulley and a colleague. It is based on the same principles as Tinkering School and has only 20 students aged 6-13.

2 THE W A YS W E LEARN

An education like no other


Gever Tulley is a computer scientist from California. In 2005,
he started a summer programme for children called Tinkering
School. The idea w as that children can learn important skills
for life by building things together. Gever Tulley and his team
help the children to think big and create plans for innovative
things they want to build. Children have made fantastic things
since the school started. They have built a rollercoaster. They
have made a rope bridge from plastic shopping bags. They
have made tree houses, wooden motorbikes and boats.

At Tinkering School, children get all kinds of materials like


wood, metal, plastic, nails and ropes. They get lots of real
tools too, such as knives, hammers, screwdrivers and power
drills. So m e children have cut themselves when using a knife,
or hurt their fingers when using a hammer. Tinkering School
has been around for many years now, but nobody has ever
suffered a serious injury in all those years. This is because
there are strict health and safety regulations they must follow.
The children always learn how to use the tools safely and
they must w ear the right clothing and protection at all times. very small - it only has 20 students aged 6 to 13. Brightworks
is based on the sam e principles as Tinkering School.
Gever Tulley’s ideas have worked very well. A lot of children
have gone to his summer schools over the years. In 2011, Since it started, Brightworks has been written about a lot.
Gever Tulley and a colleague decided to create a ‘real’ Most of those articles have been very positive. They have
school, called Brightworks, in Sa n Francisco. The school is praised the quality of the school. They have found the
children are more motivated than at many other schools. But
since the beginning of the school there have also been critical
voices. Som e people have said that children are not learning
enough at Brightworks. They feel that students and teachers
are just ‘playing around’ all the time.

The students at Brightworks seem to love their school. W e


spoke to 12-year-old Tina Cooper. S h e has been a student
at the school since last October. ‘Since I started here, I’ve
never sat in a ‘normal’ class with a teacher,’ she told us. ‘But
it’s been a very exciting experience. I’ve worked hard at my
new school for eight months now, and there hasn’t been one
single moment when I found it boring. Before, I w as bored
quite often.’
