About This Resource

Resources shared are from the PSA Super Conference 2017 - Makerspace in the classroom workshop. Provides a big picture perspective of how MakerED connects to the new curriculum and ADST. Participants in this workshop will learn how the MakerEd movement with a STEAM focus is an effective way to integrate the Applied Design, Skills and Technology (ADST) curriculum into their classroom or school. We will explore the various buzzwords, resources, tools, technologies and potential assessment strategies found in classroom based makerspaces. Participants will have a hands on opportunity to explore littleBits (https://classroom.littlebits.com/welcome), Makey Makey (https://makeymakey.com/) and Micro:Bit tech (https://microbit.org/) and discuss strategies on how to connect ADST to a language arts/aboriginal unit.
