Debra Ansell with Make: talked with three teachers running school Makerspaces. A great look at how STEAM is being incorporated with more hands-on activities.
Makerspaces bridge the gap between abstract knowledge and the practical skills to build things that help our world function. Running a makerspace can be challenging and expensive, but schools that do so often see rewards in increased student engagement, collaboration, and enthusiasm for problem solving.
Each took an unconventional and idiosyncratic path to acquire their skills, but they share a high degree of dedication and persistence, a desire to keep current with new tools and technologies, and the flexibility to allow their students to work in ways that best suit their learning styles. It’s worth noting that private schools generally have more funding and flexibility than public schools.
