Maker Space for the Masses - Build a "Robot" Hand and other Classroom Ideas

Maker Faire Bay Area 2018

May 18th-20th

Presentation Education

Creating a maker space for a small group of kids is exciting. But how do public school teachers with 190+ students a day, minimal resources and limited space scale up and create a maker space? In this presentation, I will share low cost ideas that have succeeded and a few fails.

Christine Harvey

Christine is a middle school science teacher in the Central Valley of California. Making is fun, but creating a maker space in a public school setting, with the daily demands of meeting standards, working with administrators and just teaching a large number of diverse learners, is challenging. She is excited to share her tips and learn from others.
