Welcome to the Makerspace for Education!
Congratulations for taking the first step toward your maker education! This website has been created so that you can explore different aspects of a makerspace independently. Each element (material) can be explored and implemented on its own, adding to all of the other exciting and fantastic elements you already know and those available for you to explore when you are ready. Have fun, and get making!
Not sure where to start?
Watch this instructional video walk through of our site!
If you are ready to begin your adventure, we ask that you take a few moments to complete our pre-assessment survey prior to using our site so that we can know a little bit more about you and your expectations of our makerspace website. Thanks!
How to Use this Site:
The pages of our website will start to look familiar as you explore each maker technology. We have designed a simple streamlined format that takes you through each module in exactly the same way.
All of the technologies are supported with videos, manuals and student challenges.

Each technology is introduced and begins with a "Where to Start?" section.

Finished the "Where to Start?" section? Way to go! It's time to move on to "What is next?" Super Simple! |
|
Completed the "What is next?" portion already? Wow, you are moving right along! "How to go further?" will help you create those awesome projects. It's that easy! |
We look forward to your contributions of lesson plan ideas, blog, discussion, and wiki posts and pictures to our picture gallery!
Once you have spent some time as a member of our community of practice, and had a chance to explore and implement some makerspace technologies, please check back here to complete this post-assessment survey to review your goals and growth after using this site. You will also have the opportunity to give your suggestions and feedback!
