The Maker Movement & Design Thinking


Coming up on November 22, 2013             6pm – 9pm
Lion’s Den @ NEMI Recreation Complex

What is this “Maker Movement” I keep hearing about? How can the creation of original works help my students? How can I apply this to what I am teaching?

Join us to learn about the Maker Movement, to be introduced to tools you can use to incorporate design learning with your students, and to network with like-minded educators!
