Tinkering
School is an educational program created by Gever Tulley in California and is a
registered trademark of Tinkering Unlimited.
Tinkering School uses an
engineering context as a metaphor for life: providing children real tools to
solve real problems in the real world.
Tinkering School says that it is about
recovering some of the intellectual and physical freedom of childhood in
previous generations, but it isn’t an exercise in nostalgia; it is very much
about empowering children with interpersonal, problem-solving and technical
skills that will help them succeed in the 21st century.
Tulley feels that
children benefit from playing with things that some parents consider dangerous.
He believes it makes children more adept and safer to have real experiences.
