SECONDARY SESSION 2: MAKER MINDSET
In this session, we will tap into our personal identities as makers and explore how we can cultivate this maker mindset for our students, with a focus on transforming existing classroom activities to be more hands-on and student-led. Come learn how a maker mindset can be integrated into everyday lessons and activities as opposed to just projects alone.
