AHSE 2199BENGR 3199_or_AHSE2199B: ST in Engineering or ST in AHS: Maker Pedagogy: Curriculum & Space Design

Catalog

This course focuses on the pedagogical and logistical framework required to design, launch, and manage effective makerspace workshops. We will explore how to translate technical skills (like 3D printing or woodworking) into structured learning experiences that cater to diverse skill levels. Developing a workshop is a unique challenge: you aren't just teaching a skill; you are orchestrating an environment where people feel safe enough to fail and creative enough to innovate. Students will learn to curate educational experiences that empower learners while simultaneously designing physical environments that promote safety, flow, and collaborative "messing about." We move from the why of making to the where and how.
