The Vikes are back on their bikes and off to incite mischief somewhere else... until next time. #VikesonBikes
Special thanks to the @LUMakerspace for 3D printing the Vikes' protective head gear!
Being the Makerspace assistant is more of a lifestyle than a job for Kelvin Maestre ’21.
He’s found the place where teaching, learning, and a passion for creativity merge — in a little corner of the @sgmudd library.

@BobThurman @constancekassor @AndrewQuintman@tinkercad He also created a great tutorial video that details how he made the mandala in @tinkercad https://t.co/IcZmO3gHUT (shared with his permission)
@BobThurman @constancekassor @AndrewQuintman@tinkercad The file is available! Kelvin (the student who created the design) uploaded it to https://t.co/Q0kP5arQID
Forget exams and papers -- try podcasts and escape rooms.
Professors at Lawrence are continuously tapping into new and creative ways to assess how well students comprehend the information taught in their classrooms. Read about a few such efforts here ⬇️

We love that our #makerspace is available for all @lawrenceuni students to be able to pursue cool projects like Claudia's. She did such great work! #MakerEd
“It was a way to expand my work with primates,” Claudia Rohr ’19 said. “It was cool being able to see how the skeleton works as a whole & how different bones are articulated, rather than just looking at it for a day or two in class & being tested on it.”

Had a great time & learned so much at @Play_Make_Learn! Also had the opportunity to present this poster that looks at the intersections between the library, makerspace, and game studies in a liberal arts environment. Read more at: https://t.co/TbeIoE5QeZ #medialiteracy#access
This was an awesome session! We're especially excited about teaching students how to be contributors to @Wikipedia to expand voices, share information from our library's excellent collection, and allow students' work to be seen.
DYK Lawrence has a makerspace with 3D printers & scanners in the @sgmudd library that all students are free to use? The @LUMakerspace also includes sewing machines, electronic cutter, painting supplies, laminator, and a soldering station!

Being connected to the community while earning a paycheck is a win-win for Johanna Kopecky ’21, a part-time employee of the History Museum at the Castle. She's one of 13 Lawrence students working for area nonprofits through a Federal Work Study program.

"You can't get into technology unless you've been inspired by it, and you can't get inspired by it unless you've been exposed [to it]." @RebeccaStavick Exactly why we love providing access to tech for all @LawrenceUni students.
Students and faculty are teaming up to take on an endangered thistle's invasive evil weevil problem with a 3D printer and faux plants.
Try saying that 5 times fast. #OnlyatLawrence
