Behind the Scenes at The Tinkering Workshop

Ryan Jenkins

Join author Ryan Jenkins for a look at his new book, The Tinkering Workshop which presents a wide variety of ways to play and create with art, science and technology using everyday materials.

Adaptable Maker Projects for Academic Classrooms

Lydia Cline

Join Diane Brancazio and Justin Schmidt of the K-12 Maker Lab at the MIT Edgerton  as they discuss how maker projects can engage students and improve learning experiences in K-12 academic classes. Integrating open-ended, hands-on, creative activities with cool tools in an academic classroom helps students develop tech skills, make personal connections to the content, formulate and resolve their own questions, and express their learning. Maker projects also reduce barriers to students taking STEM classes and pursuing a technical career path by giving them skills and familiarity with current technologies. The K-12 Maker team from the MIT Edgerton Center supports teachers in bringing these experiences to their students. Explore our resources on how to get a maker culture going in school. Along with sample projects we will focus on project design, teacher practices, and makerspace setup. Learn More
