Creativity and Success

When a kid builds a model rocket, kite or birdhouse, she not only picks up math, physics and chemistry along the way, she also develops her creativity, resourcefulness, planning abilities, curiosity and engagement with the world around her.

- Dale Dougherty

What is a MakerSpace/

Maker Education?Modeled after hackerspaces, a makerspace is a place where young people have an opportunity

– to explore their own interests,

– learn to use tools and materials, and develop creative projects.

– could be a simple room in a building (library)

– The key is that it can adapted to a wide variety of uses and can be shaped by educational purposes including the educator and students’ creative goals.



Maker Education Materials



• Game boards and game pieces• Hammer, nails, wood glue (birdhouse kit)• Circuit kits (batteries, light bulbs, items)• Sewing machine (fabric, thread, patterns)• Laptop and robotic kits• Mobile devices and/or cell phones• Apps for content creation and digital storytelling• Games and game apps• 3d pens and printers ($$$)

Common Maker Ed Tools
