The rise of the Maker Movement
that supports constructionism learning is an ideal approach
to build STEM
capability through setting up of Innovation Spaces,
FabLabs or Makerspaces in Schools. The benefit of these
inspiring spaces is that it accelerates the processes of
ideation and invention through collaboration and creative
problem solving.
Edukyte assists in the layout
design, fit-out, modular furniture, branding,
equipment, technologies, consumables and
curriculum resources for these learning
spaces in schools. These educational spaces designed for
project based learning can include best
technologies for design and construction – such as 3D
printers, laser cutters, hand tools, electronics, robotics
and more.
Edukyte with our deep expertise in
these innovative spaces consult on the workspaces to include
safety considerations, planning of consumables, operational
processes apart from providing best of resources that will
inspire making and build a making
mindset.
Such spaces are a place for
invention, creation, discovery and sharing, a space of
inquiry where students learn and knowledge gets integrated
into their personal interests and daily life.
Makerspaces
Whether you call them Innovation Hubs, Makerspaces, School
Fablabs – it’s a learning space for innovating
future solutions, to solve challenges facing our communities and
the world through tinkering and making. In the makerspace
teachers can play a role in inspiring learners through
constructionist learning methods; introducing and exposing
learners to essential STEAM and future life skills; enhancing
students´ innovative capacities and entrepreneurial spirit
— and create solutions in the process!
Edukyte provides turnkey implementation from the design of
a collaborative studio learning environment with modular
furniture/storage, meaningful tools and technologies, and
activities that empower students as entrepreneurs, changemakers,
and problem-solvers.
Early Years Makerspace
In an early years makerspace - similar to a modern Reggio
Atelier, children engage more deeply in learning as they pursue
individual interests and learn by doing. By applying a
constructivist approach, the Early years makerspace can foster
creativity, problem-solving mindsets, and hands-on learning.
Children tinker, build, explore and invent using Edukyte’s
low-tech and high-tech resources through playful learning
leading to gaining of subject knowledge and social and emotional
development.
