October 1st-2nd
Presentation
Education
A maker-centered educator will share examples of methodologies that have helped students playfully explore new possibilities for materials and tools - approaches that can easily be duplicated in other classrooms. Take advantage of the ideas your students have, and let them show you what can be done!
