Build a dedicated place for students to adopt a “maker-based approach” to education.

Description

The SMU Maker Education Project is a partnership between the Lyle School of Engineering, the Simmons School of Education, and local districts and schools.

It is dedicated to catalyzing transformational maker-based learning experiences for students in K-12 schools. Our mission is to support a robust and sustainable maker culture in K-12 schools, to create lasting change. We do this by training educators in our innovative approach to maker education, Maker-Based Instruction. We deliver these resources and experiences out of the back of our mobile makerspace.
