 * "Tinkering"** encapsulates how we learn.

 * observing;
 * testing;
 * giving something a go in a safe environment;
 * ongoing practicing;
 * receiving and giving feedback in situ; and
 * mastering content, and processes, all within social/cultural practices.

** The practice of being an apprentice is no longer understood as the poorer cousin to academic learning for example. **
** It is about ** learning to use digital technologies - not in a one or two day in-service but by "tinkering " having an open mind - knowing when to persist, who and wht to interact with, and when to fold.
