Makerspace
Our Makerspace is a flexible and personalized learning environment that fosters creative problem solving, curiosity, collaboration, and iterative learning.
Our Makerspace is a flexible and personalized learning environment that fosters creative problem solving, curiosity, collaboration, and iterative learning. This, in turn, leads to better thinking through more effective questioning.
Teachers blend core disciplines in a project-based approach, allowing students to explore their interests and harness their innovative potential. Projects are not done at the end of a learning unit; they are the vehicle and purpose of the learning. Focus is on projects in engineering, robotics, electronics, 3-D graphic design and printing, programming, woodworking, metalworking, gardening, culinary arts, or a combination of these areas.
Our Makerspace opportunities exist because we believe learning through doing is integral to Learning through Living—learning can be self-organized, social, and student-owned. It can be the product of play, experimentation, and authentic inquiry, where each student exploits the ideal of experiential education.
