The Maker Educator Boot Camp is a multi-week intensive course for educators who want to learn Maker skills, technologies, and teaching methodologies.
Maker Educator Boot Camp
Program Details
Maker Education is an interest-led pedagogical style where learners design, plan, prototype and iterate their very own physical projects. In this program participants will learn Maker skills, principles, tools & technologies by doing exactly that – building the projects that they feel passionate about. No previous technology experience is required, we’ll build your skill from the ground up!
This program has a focus on high tech making, including Arduino, Internet of Things, and Digital Fabrication. You will learn these skills through hands-on application by building a real Internet of Things projects.
Our Maker Educator Bootcamp will have a rolling start date in Fall 2019 to ensure that adequate numbers are met to facilitate a community learning environment. To reserve your spot please email info@steamlabs.ca.
