Session description

Makerspaces are not just reserved for libraries or ed-tech classrooms. Teachers of all subject areas can benefit from maker space projects in their classrooms. This playground will encourage educators to engage in hands-on activities in their classrooms.

Outline

Content and Activities:
Each station in the makerspace will be dedicated to a different content area (as many as we can gather). At each station, there will be a demonstration of the makerspace activity and participants will actually engage in the process of doing whatever activity the presenter brings to the table.

Time:
Time will depend upon how long the playground lasts, how many stations there are, etc. Generally speaking each makerspace activity shouldn't last more than 10-15 minutes along with question and answer time.

Process:
People who visit this playground will be engaged in the creation of a makerspace product based in the content areas, so they will be able to find something that meets their interests.
