Abstract:
With the help of the Museum of Science and Industry, the Chicago Public Library now offers young patrons the opportunity to participate in an innovative summer program called Rahm’s Readers Summer Learning Challenge. The program uses the principles of STEAM education (science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics) and design thinking to encourage the development of twenty-first-century skills. In Summer Matters: Making All Learning Count, Elizabeth M. McChesney of the Chicago Public Library and Bryan W. Wunar of the Museum of Science and Industry explain why and how they created their Summer Learning Challenge, and how readers can implement similar programs at their libraries.

Abstract:
In keeping with the new era of information and ecology, the urgent mission of the architect is how to provide the latest green house information and some of the practices and relevant hands-on experiences for the public. In 2012, the Museum of Science and Industry of Chicago built a green house in its yard. The green house exhibition-Smart Home: Green + Wired highlights the importance of environmentally friendly effort. The exhibition intents to present for residents and visitors on how green house could help improve the environment as well as save money. The exhibition also focuses on the purpose of working together: the academia of architecture, the industrial companies and the public, trying to conserve and protect Chicago for future generations. Furthermore, with the introduction of Smart Home, this essay aims to inspire the deeper thinking about popularity of green architecture in China.

Abstract:
Background/Context In the United States, the percentage of schoolchildren planning to become high-status professionals is grossly disproportionate to the percentage of such jobs comprising our division of labor. As in a game of musical chairs, it is not structurally possible for everyone to remain a contender. Focus of Study Various adults who did not grow up to be pilots educate others (including the researcher) about how they visually experienced a pilot's workplace, and the lessons they drew from this experience. Setting Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. Research Design Long-term ethnographic fieldwork, and a close analysis of interactions among twenty randomly sampled groups of visitors. Findings/Results What visitors have achieved directs our attention to a different kind of pedagogy possible in technology centers: a pedagogy in which, rather than appropriating technological knowledge, one appropriates one's own alienation from this knowledge. Although it might seem perverse to suggest building it in, this is after all a crucial aspect of the larger world of technology: its incomprehensibility, its alienness, its requirement of training. The cockpit gives visitors a partial perspective on a totality, and when you look into the totality, the totality also looks into you: the experience compels people to account for their own positioning. Conclusions/Recommendations If we take seriously the idea that education is a collective project, then studying education means studying not only how people are transformed from one status to another, but how as part of this process people construct accounts rationalizing what has happened to them. As it happens, such accounts are not merely post hoc rationalizations; they also permit a forward impetus, as people draw on these accounts in seeking to attain transformative agency, to make things happen differently next time.

Abstract:
Abstract Axles for aircraft, automobiles, and horse wagons do not rotate. From the chariot of around B.C. 2,000 to horse wagons of the wild west, axles for vehicles have not rotated except for the railroad. Why and when railroad axles started to rotate is the subject of this report. Stevens’ locomotive exhibited in the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago is called the first locomotive to run on a track in America in 1825 and has stationary axles. On the other hand, Locomotion by Stephenson in England, which is the first train on a public railroad in England in 1825, has rotational axles. In the US, all axles seem to have started to rotate around 1834, when the Mississippi was inaugurated. This report tried to investigate the time and reason for the beginning of railroad axle rotation. As a result, the axles for wheel drive locomotives are considered to be needed to rotate with wheels from the viewpoint of maximum friction power. However, the reason of axle rotation for the trailing wheel at the beginning of the railroad is not explicit. Further investigation is required.
