Creating a New Makerspace at Our School - User Generated Education - Jackie Gerstein @JackieGerstein

Creating a New Makerspace at Our School - User Generated Education - Jackie Gerstein @JackieGerstein | Cultivating Creativity | Scoop.it
I am beyond elated – our PreK-6 elementary school received monies, through our district’s Computer Science Resolution 2025, to create a STEAM (science, technology, arts, math) makerspace. I never thought our Title 1 school would get the opportunity to create such a space. I never thought I would get the opportunity to help create a fully equipped makerspace. A few of use spent the past few weeks rearranging our library so that one side contains our books and the other our STEAM materials.

The Maker Movement is a technological and creative revolution underway around the world. Fortunately for educators, the Maker Movement overlaps with the natural inclinations of children and the power of learning by doing. Embracing the lessons of the Maker Movement holds the keys to reanimating the best, but oft-forgotten learner-centered teaching practices. New tools and technology, such as 3D printing, robotics, microprocessors, wearable computing, e-textiles, “smart” materials, and new programming languages are being invented at an unprecedented pace. The Maker Movement creates affordable — even free — versions of these inventions, and shares tools and ideas online, creating a vibrant, collaborative community of global problem-solvers.

Not much info on 3D printing, but I found some ideas for next year.

Jackie's Maker Education site is likely one of the most complete sources of ideas and activities for any makerspace. A MUST VISIT!!
