What You'll Do:
Join us for an online conversation with educators who have found successful ways to organize everything from tools to student training to managing multiple projects at one time. Let’s explore practical ideas, suggestions, tips and tricks, and successful implementations as well as common growing pains. We invite you to bring your ideas, experiences, and questions and share your thoughts with like-minded educators.
Our special guest, Michael Carroll (@Scrappymaker) loves creating resources so making is more accessible to teachers and students around the world, often achieved by using common items in uncommon ways. This approach is documented in Scrappy Circuits, a book that teaches how to use common dollar store parts to make different bricks that can be connected to build real-working electronic inventions.
What is Included:
- Participation in the discussion taking place over Zoom
- Post event access to session recordings

Make: Community
Follow them at:Make: has been a vanguard of the maker movement with the publication of its namesake magazine for over 16 years and its network of Maker Faires. We have two goals: one is to increase the number of people who are exposed to making and become makers, and two is to share the wide variety of projects that makers create and show their contribution to our society. We believe it is essential that more and more youth are provided access to the tools, materials, concepts, and support to grow as makers through opportunities in both formal and informal learning in their local community. -
