In 2013, Sylvia Martinez and I wrote\/published Invent To Learn: Making, Tinkering, and Engineering in the Classroom<\/em><\/a>.<\/strong> That book, called the “bible of the maker movement in schools,” is arguably one of the most influential education books of the past dozen years. Invent To Learn<\/em><\/a> led to the creation of Constructing Modern Knowledge Press<\/a>, publisher of 20 books by progressive educators for creative educators and Cymbal Press<\/a>, publisher of seven acclaimed books by leading jazz musicians and writers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, thanks to our friends Marius Narvilas and Valentina Dagiene and their colleagues, Invent To Learn<\/a><\/em> has been translated into Lithuanian. Not only does this publication mark the 10th language for Invent To Learn<\/a><\/em>, but Lithuania is very special to me. Not only is it a beautiful, resilient, wise, and playful country I love, but I have ancestral roots in Vilnius as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Lithuanian translator, friend, and champion Marius Narvilas with the 10th translated edition of Invent To Learn<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

On the occasion of the publication of our book in Lithuanian, I authored a brief foreword to that edition specifically for Lithuanian readers. That foreword includes a bit of history and reflection on learning-by-making since the original publication of Invent To Learn<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope you enjoy reading this short essay as much as I enjoyed writing it. The Lithuanian version should be available for sale shortly. Link to follow!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
