Tinkering

After-school and out-of-school programs - as well as home schooling - have been growing steadily for nearly a decade, but instructors are still searching for high-interest content that ties into science standards without the rigidity of current classroom canon. The author draws on more than 20 years of experience doing hands-on science to facilitate tinkering: learning science while fooling around with real things.

^ Does it tell how to convince KDE devs in fixing (years-old) bugs? :)

(Don't get me wrong, I do like KDE as a sort of sensible Windows 7 and that guide showed some new things, but the bugs is why I gave up).
