Our Weekend Ed. Quote features a timeline of 200 years with a quote from the 1800’s and an image generated by DeepAI ~ yesterday.
“Young people must break machines to learn how to use them; get another made!” ~ English scientist Henry Cavendish (1731–1810), as quoted in Biographical Memoir of Henry Cavendish by the French naturalist and zoologist Georges Cuvier.

Henry Cavendish is the scientist who is 1798 effectively “weighed” the Earth — without leaving his laboratory. Cavendish reportedly made this remark when he was informed that a young man had broken one of his expensive and valuable scientific instruments. Despite being famously shy and reclusive, this quote reflects a surprisingly pragmatic view of scientific education—that the cost of broken equipment was a necessary investment in the learning process of the next generation. Breaking, making, and tinkering would continue to influence Learning through the theoretical endeavors of Seymour Papert, Kolb, and Seimens.
