Caught on Camera: Youth and Educator’s Noticing of and Response to Failure

World Maker Faire 2017

September 23rd-24th

Presentation Education

In this presentation, we will present research findings and discuss pedagogical practices that address the following two questions: (1) How do youth and educators notice (i.e., attend and interpret) and respond to failure during the making process? (2) How are these experiences mediated by the task?
