The story of #makerspaces and #fablabs in public schools by @CoachStone12 right now, never stops inspiring! @FabLabLiz #FabEducatorsSummit

It is an art to teach/facilitate through the constructionist lens for sure! I am still learning how to do this even today. Thanks for the shout out @thekylekitchen

We are doing a #SciArt project in PbS 6 that combines knowledge of #textiles and #chemistry!

Do you have some empty paper towel rolls? You can turn these into lip syncing robots using the #microbit V2 and a servo motor.

Inspired by the cool talking puppets of @mountain_makers and @NogaElhassid. And by the wonderful lip syncing robots of @ceciliahillway.

Spending two summer days learning more about teaching #STEAM with @mountain_makers . Already made a paper circuit, paper marble maze, and now learning how to use and program a microbit. This makes me excited to see students in 3 weeks!

5-31 million individuals earn an income through art, craft, or other creative entrepreneurship, however, minimal effort has been made to understand this population more deeply—until now https://t.co/3F5HLQNv7k @tinkerguy1

@ChuckStoffle https://t.co/FeuIYxcnp4 how to video for the head, adding the body is easy

[Mountain Makers @mountain_makers]

@ChuckStoffle simple, but they need tinkering to make work, really good "hard fun" for kids!
